Subject:   still having problems with a news server... (now 2.1-stable)

Last week I posted some info on a problem we were having with a news server
-- regular 'panic: page fault' messages, followed by filesystem corruption
so bad it wasn't worth fixing.  Several people said to try upgrading to
-stable, which we did (the 'make world' took a little over 48 hours :-().
maxusers has also been bumped to 40.

The machine has been running since yesterday (which is better than it had
been), but: a little while ago we found the message
'aha0: Invalid CCB or segment list'
on the console.  After taking the machine to single-user, running fsck on
the news spool partition showed the same type of corruption we'd previously
seen after the panics, just not as bad/widely spread.

Any suggestions?  Which particular piece of hardware should we swap first?
FWIW, the news spool partition is on one of those Micropolis 4GB drives
that moonlights as a space heater, and it does seem to be fairly warm.

All help will be greatly appreciated...
