Hello everybody, I ran dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/sda bs=10240 to copy the contents of one drive to another as suggested on this list. And updated fstab and grub.conf. Now the PC boots into a kernel panic. The boot sector /dev/sda1 is okay but badblocks reveals page after page of badblocks on /dev/sda3(reiserfs), my root part.
I've only had the drive, a Western Digital 120G SATA, a few days and it was never dropped or bumped. Could it be a lemon drive or is this a result of dd going haywire somehow? I re-ran dd if=/dev/hda3 of=/dev/sda3 to redo just the partition in question but it didn't help. Any suggestions? -mw __________________________________ Yahoo!
