[rhn-users] rebuild kernel or get new hard drive?

[Howard, Chris]

If you have the time and inclination, I'd run fsck on all of them,
or at least all of the partitions on drive /dev/sda

Thank you Chris and Mark.  Yes, these are scsi drives and when I did a 
df and then tried to umount /dev/sda5 so that I
could do fsck to the drive, it tells me drive is busy.  It shouldn't be,

I rebooted, everyone's off, I looked at mount,
nobody's mounted, but it still won't let me umount.  I'm thinking about 
going over to the building where the machine
is and booting from the dvd and then trying to umount.  This worked on 
another system a while back.  Any more
suggestions/advice is very very much appreciated.
