Problems with /dev/hdc. Without knowing anything about your hardware ...
difficult. Maybe this is a CD-ROM. See the log file for the full error
message. May be a problem with the DMA mode. If it is a hard drive, then
check it with smartctl.

Just ignore this.

I don't see any error here. This is just informational output from the
secure log file.

See /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and create the certs as explained there in
short form. Or else ignore this messages. It is more a warning than an
error and does not prevent Sendmail from running.
