Hi Managers,

I'm sorry for the late summary.

Thanks very much for help from Tony Walsh, Jan-Olaf Droese, Ric Anderson,
Thomas Lester.

They gave me a couple of suggestions:
1. Not enough patching on my server. I have checked this out and that wasn't
the problem.
2. Try to use (instead of rsync) the dd command. I do not know why but the
dd command didn't work on my server (I could not perform remote copy using
dd)
3. The root partition to big (over 2GB). The format command listed exact
2GB, so I resized the root partition to 1.98GB, reinstall system and tried.
This step didn't help
4. One of the managers pointed out that I should use Disk Suite instead of
rsyncing.. I will follow that idea.

After all these steps I used the ufsdump (and ufsrestore) command. The disk
started working. ???!!!

Also I was told that the 36 GB (Seagate drives) are not really qualified to
be installed in an SS20.

Thanks,
My best regards,
Piotr Wolak
