Hi Guys,

I have a SOHO file server that's become rather grumpy during a move 
[office to office]

it's a 5.1 system with 4 x Western Digital [WD800] hard drives [non 
RAID] and it's giving me this error:


ad0: hard error cmd=read fsbn 86662543 of 86662574 status=51 error =40 
Jan 17 18:00:00 init can't exec getty 'usr/libexec/getty' for port 
/dev/ttyv5: Input/output error

the machine has experienced some hard resets over the last month due to 
the monsoon season here in the tropics!

what is a quick work-around? is the drive dead?  any suggestions?
