Input/output error

[Dave_Bechtel]

What cheat codes are you using? This is just a wild guess, but if ACPI isn't working correctly your machine might be overheating.

BTW, it's ' cat /proc/cpuinfo ', not etc.

What kind of specs does your system have, CPU, cdrom, video card, is it a laptop, etc.

hi,

I have been using knoppix since 3.6, but I just starting to see this problem on 3.9 release. After I let the Knoppix mahince run for about 3-4 hours, any command would result "Input/output error". Even something simple as "cat /etc/cpuinfo".

The error really got me confused. Could the error be attributed to error in hardware?
Thanks.
