So last night I do "emerge sync", and all of a sudden portage is |
| 2 |
giving me a whole lot of I/O errors right before "emerge sync" is |
| 3 |
completed, like |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
stat app-misc/esekeyd : Input/output error |
| 6 |
rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "app-misc/esekeyd/files": Input/output error (2) |
| 7 |
stat app-misc/esekeyd/files : Input/output error |
| 8 |
io timeout after 180 seconds - exiting |
| 9 |
rsync error: timeout in data send/receive (code 30) at io.c(85) |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
The emerge will not complete successfully. Tried it again this |
| 12 |
morning - no luck. Thought I'd reboot, and on boot-up I get a message |
| 13 |
telling me that my "/dev/sda4" filesystem, which is where my /usr is |
| 14 |
mounted, contains errors. So as Gentoo is trying to repair it, I hear |
| 15 |
periodic beeps coming from inside my PC. Finally, the PC boots. I |
| 16 |
run "emerge sync", and again - same errors that I posted above. But |
| 17 |
this time, I hear beeps from inside my PC even as emerge is running |
| 18 |
trying to complete syncing. The sync will not complete successfully, |
| 19 |
so I cannot even use portage until I get a successful sync (right?). |

Do I have a problem with my hardware in this case, or is it something |
| 22 |
software related? I am using two big old Seagate SCSI drives (47 GB |
| 23 |
each), with Adaptec drivers. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
My partition table is as follows, if it helps resolve this: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
/dev/sda1 --> /boot (200MB) |
| 28 |
/dev/sda2 --> SWAP (2GB) |
| 29 |
/dev/sda3 --> / (25GB) |
| 30 |
/dev/sda4 --> /usr (20GB) |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
/dev/sdb1 --> /home (47GB) |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
I am running an Intel x86-based system. Would appreciate any help. |
