Does this mean you are expecting me to do this? This week may not be the best time to have lengthy interruptions, given that authors are currently getting their monthly update.

I will not do anything until there is a change in disk.
I thought you wanted to reboot in the 2.6 kernel, move things to the new disk...
If my theory is correct, I can't move things to the new disk without high risk of the machine going down when fs is corrupt with bad block.
The best way is to reboot and force a file system check by setting the max count
tune2fs -c 1000 rid stop reboot
It will check the file system, but I don't know how to force it to use the -c and -y options. Thus I recommend to run in single user mode (second grub line), and remount the root file system read only.
mount -o ro,remount /dev/sda1 e2fsck -c -y /dev/sda1
It sholud be done in a few hours. Then reboot, again into single user, and start to rsync, as detailed in previous mails. Then run grub, exchange disks etc...
