Hi,
just encountered harddisk failure. Almost every command ends up with Input/output error. In syslog I found:
Code:

After this last line, the syslog ends. System is still running.
My question is what steps should I do now? I do have backups. Should I try to boot livecd and rescue the system? Or just reinstall system on new hdd and use backup files? Although hdd failed, system still manages to supply some services. I want to shorten the outage time as much as possible, thats why I'm asking for advices here.
Thanks for advices!
