I'm getting the following error occassionally (especially when I'm trying to compile gcc: wd0b:hard error writing fsbn 13837 of 13832-13839 (wd0bn 30683; cn 120 tn 4 sn 15) It took me a while to figure this out, but this is my swap partition! When this happens, my machine dies, and i have to reboot. It's happened about 3-4 times now. I don't know how to fix it. Any suggestions?
