   Synopsis: Panic with failing SATA disk
   
   State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
   State-Changed-By: dholland%NetBSD.org@localhost
   State-Changed-When: Tue, 12 Jan 2010 06:52:50 +0000
   State-Changed-Why:
   Unfortunately, when hardware starts throwing machine-check exceptions at
   you, there's not much that can be done. AFAIK. (Someone correct me if this
   is flagrantly wrong.)


modern platforms can report recoverable errors via MCE.  :-)
