[iyonix-support] Hard disc problems

Help please

After some years of trusty service with occasional complete lockups
needing reboots, my Iyonix is not well. The machine was on but with the
monitor off, and it had some sort of unseen crash, and on bootup there
was a message about the 2 disc maps not agreeing with one another - I
tried to run the relevant correction suggested, but I believe that hung
up or completed (cant quite remember that one now). Now I seem to have
very slow hard disc access and thousands of directories - apparently 4
per minute during 1st to 11th of December each containing a single crash
dump log file from Aemulor. The main problem at the moment is that the
machine hangs if I try to delete one. Fortunately, I have managed to
back up the machine over the network to my LinuxPC with very few files
unreadable - 11.5GB total. What do I do next?
