scarlet has a very unhappy disc. It's sitting there going "ker-chunk
ker-chunk ker-chunk" two or three times per second. It takes a long time
to log in and the syslog says this:

Jul 18 17:06:29 6A:scarlet unix: dksc0d1s0: <6>[Alert] Media error<6>: Unrecovered data block read error (asc=0x11, asq=0x0)<6> (FRU=0xd0)<6>, (data byte 33)<6>, Block #3946568<6> (4474952)<6>

Shall I shut it down and minimise its misery?

Nick.
