	It means your hard drive is very likely dying.  While there are
steps that can be taken from a filesystem and manufacturer bad block level,
but the fact is that the physical media on the drive is likely breaking
down.  You can put off the inevitable for a while, but your disk is dying.

	If hda is simply a CD - it's bad media.
