We just purchased from Walnut Creek a FreeBSD 2.1, and we are getting an 
insistent error message, which reads as following:

wd0: hard error reading fsbn 64 of 64-79 (wd0 bn 64; cn 0 tn 1 sn 1)
wd0: status 59<seekdone,drq,err> error 4<abort>

and also

wd0: interrupt timeout:

What does this error mean? The hard disk is a Western Digital 1.08 Gb which 
is working very well with MS-DOS and Linux. This message comes from time to 
time even when the system is idle. Installation of the file systems was made 
automatically by the install program.

Where there is a list of all error messages and their meaning?

If someone can help me, please do.
