but a hour ago Load_Cycle_Count was: 103698

== ReiserFS or ...? ==

Day ago I leave my notebook on 30 minutes, and when I came back I was heard
that my HDD was buzzing!
[noisy like the sound of a bee; doing something hard]
I tried to do something, but Fedora don't respond.. even if I press Ctrl+Alt+F2
or Ctrl+Alt+Del..
I wait about 10 minutes..
I was forced to press and hold PowerOff button for 5 seconds for hard-shutdown..
When I turn on my laptop, I found something strange in /var/log/messages file:

Nov 19 22:09:23 fedora yum: Installed: unrar - 3.7.8-1.lvn8.i386
Nov 19 22:43:34 fedora kernel: ReiserFS: sda6: warning: vs-8115: get_num_ver:

And before this Load_Cycle_Cont was about 96###, and after - 102### ...
