Recently I have been getting the following hard drive error(s) ...

	wd0s2b: soft error reading fsbn 7721 of 7720-7735
	(wd0s2 bn 130601; cn 214 tn 12 33)
	wd0: status 58 <seekdone,drq> error 40 <uncorr>

I have been using 2.1.5 for about the last 2 weeks with no problems,
but suddenly the hard drive errors, weird noises, relatively poor
performance, etc.

	System:
		486sx33
		4MB ram, 10MB swap
		210MB Conner hard drive

Any help would be greatly appreciated .......

Doug
