#26545: I/O error on boost 1.44 installation --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nicola.degara@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 1.9.1 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Port: boost | --------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment(by adfernandes@…): SMART is a funny thing. The SMART "conditions" are often not exceeded, even when the drive is failing. Try installing the `smartmontools` port, and using the `smartctl -a [disk]` command. Look carefully at the disk's internal error log. Frequently, drives record media errors but then do '''not''' report SMART problems. That's happened to me twice.
