Assuming you simply rebooted the machine and did no other changes,
this is likely to be disk corruption (probably due to age). If the
symptoms persist, try taking this opportunity to install 6.3 (you have
backups of all the data and configurations, right?) and see if that
helps. If not, your disk is toast.
