    when doing a disk-to-disk backup using dump/restore, I reliably get a disk
    failure. I don't think it's the disk because it happens on six different
    machines. All six machines are using SATA drives. They all have an ASUS
    P4P800 MB.

    None of the six machines had any problems until after the last security
    patch to 5.2.1. After the patch, they all fail. If I remember correctly,
    the last security patch only touched some TCP files, so the disk failures
    don't make any sense to me.

    commands causing the failure, console output and dmesg are below. This is
    on a test machine that I can take down or modify at any time, so if there is
    anything further that I can do to help debug this - please let me know.
