xfs_check segfault / xfs_repair I/O error

[Drew Wareham]

Hi Dave / Stan,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.  Unfortunately none of the suggestions
were able to recover the data - I'm going to rebuild the array now, but as
RAID6 for the extra level of security.

Thanks again for all your help!


Cheers,

Drew
