[CentOS] WARNING: Kernel Errors Present in logwatch

[Erick Perez]

Matty,

Here are the logs for today. I waited a few days just to be sure (as
Maciej said) that my /var/log/messages was not getting old info.

Dec  8 04:05:27 mail kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Dec  8 04:05:27 mail kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev hda, sector 6018821
Dec  8 04:05:31 mail kernel: hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
Dec  8 04:05:31 mail kernel: hda: read_intr: error=0x40 {
UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=6018827, sector=6018821
Dec  8 04:05:31 mail kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Dec  8 04:05:31 mail kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev hda, sector 6018821
Dec  8 04:05:45 mail kernel: hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
Dec  8 04:05:45 mail kernel: hda: read_intr: error=0x01 {
AddrMarkNotFound }, LBAsect=6234661, sector=6234661
Dec  8 04:05:45 mail kernel: ide: failed opcode was: unknown
Dec  8 04:05:48 mail kernel: hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest

seems that the controller is bad. so the motherboard is bad.
