Dears,
I am getting crazy with my system.(I got the machine from previous guy working on it with XP, I installed myself linux, but with zero experience, 2 years ago).
starting point yesterday:
3 HDs in raid, SUSE 10.3 x64 installed on sdc1 with problems, XP on sda, SUSE 10.2 x32 on sda as well:
Disk /dev/sda: 250.8 GB, 250808893440 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30492 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Disk identifier: 0xc792c792
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 15246 122463463+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2 * 15247 27443 97972402+ f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sda3 27444 30492 24491092+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda5 15247 17857 20972826 83 Linux

Goal: I need 64 bit for big calculation using >4Gb ram. Don’t care about prevoius installation, except /home in sdc2 which I want to keep, if possible.
Suse x64 on sdc1 started not to work properly some months ago (system hanging up after 5 min because it went into read-only filesystem - thread here, unsolved).
Problem left unsolved for months. NOw I have to solve it.
Attempted to repair via install-dvd, filesystem corrupted, no chance.
Tried to restore image of sdc1 before accident, successfull, but problem still there.
I decide to remove the 32 bit OS (XP and SUSE 32) on sda. FOrmat sda during installation.
Several WRONG DIGEST errors during installation. INstallation aborted (but sda and sdb formatted already)
reboot + installation media integrity check: failed
(error reading sector XXXXXX)
reboot + install-DVD SUSE 10.3 + installation media integrity check: also failed
Reboot + firmware check → 3 errors (see pic)

What to do now?

thanks in advance
