What does it mean and what can I do next? I have tried a fsck it also get these errors and aborts. Has my disk bought the farm? The error - "error reading primary partition table" does not make me feel warm and fuzzy. Please cc to me (stanny@TDFltd.com) since the list subscription goes to my work account. Thanks for a great OS.
