Never mind, shortly after posting this the system started to behave
strangely. I tried to look in /var/log/messages, and the system
locked up. It's the "EXT3-fs error (devive dm-0) in
start_transaction: Journal has aborted" problem from a previous post
again. I've removed the dmraid package, but I've not yet replaced
the SATA cable. I'll have to do that next...
