KERNEL Panic!

[Laszlo Acs <laszlo@lanscape.net>]

I suddenly had a blowout.  

Screen log shows:
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
-/bin/sh: can't open cache '/etc/ld.so.cache'
hda: read_intr: status=0x59 {DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
hda: read_intr: error=0x40 {UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=16457, sector=16394
end_request: I/O error, dev 03:01, sector 16394
Kernel panic: EXT2-fs panic (device 03:01): ext2_read_inode: unable to read
i-node block - inode=1921, block=8197

What should I do?  Do I have to start all over?  My interpretation of this
message is that the hard drive apparently has developed a bad block or
something.  Am I correct?  I have this sinking feeling that I should've
backed up all that stuff I worked on last night when I was thinking about
it... but no, it was late... besides, what would happen...  Murphy's Law...

Ain't that something.  C'est la vie!
