Quite specifically, after reading 5120 bytes (10 blocks) of data from the
disk, out of 8192 bytes (16 blocks), the driver ran into a medium error at
block 1360298.  Unfortunately, I can't really tell you what the data is,
but it looks to me like the bit pattern from a freshly-formatted block.

Change history as in diffs between each revision, or as in the log
messages that accompany each revision?
