The errors in the kernel log sound like file-system level inconsistencies. Copying the data by using "dd" of the underlying device would also preserve the filesystem level inconsistencies... > Any ideas ? Could be a SATA cable / SATA controller / motherboard > issue? How to identify the right problem? Possibly. If so, I'd expect other clues in the kernel log complaining about hardware issues.... It could even be a power issue - lack of sufficient voltage can have all sorts of weird and counter-intuitive results. And inconsistently so. Hope this helps -- Karl E.
