I attached a longer list of texts around this message.

Re: text in /var/log/messages

Looks like the partition table of sdc cannot be read, this could be a hardware problem or a never used disk. What is the output of:

fdisk -l /dev/sdc?

Any hardware problems recently?

The /dev/sdc does not appears. But I have discovered that all filesystems are well. This is, it apppears as sdc particion is not used right now. I think it is not a pproblem. May be any recent change reordered the name of the blockdevices.

Thank you!

Have you attached a Pendrive or another removable device?
