GEOM: ad10s2: geometry does not match label (255h,63s != 16h,63s).

I reported this once in the list, but I was told it could be suspicious hardware. So I tested memory twice, thrice over hours without issue, I did stress tests while the box was up and running and tried to examine the harddrive via SMART monitoring tools. No issues found. Is someone is willing giving advice how to save a core dump message on screen I will follow. yes, I'm aware of the debugging chapter in the handbook and I will perform this as soon as possible.
