[QUOTE="Kevriano, post: 855353, member: 18605"] You should start by running disc utility from your install dvd, and fixing the HD. If you can't you need to run fsck -fy, either of which should fix the "failure on exit" error, and may well get you back to being able to read the external drives. Also try a hardware test. If that fails, I think your HD is dying or dead. [/QUOTE]
