KDE not starting and getting access errors

[jim ruxton]

Just wondering if anyone has any thoughts as to why I'm getting the
following messages. It started after I tried to boot off a CD that I
thought was Fedora Core 3 Disk 1. Well it was but it was just a copy of
the .iso file and the CD wasn't burned as an iso image. A couple of
strange things happened. While booting I get this message:

Feb 24 03:11:22 localhost kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device
Feb 24 03:11:22 localhost kernel: 03:05: rw=0, want=40242032,
limit=10586803
Feb 24 03:11:22 localhost kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device

limit=10586803

And when I try to start KDE I get this below. Gnome runs fine. Any ideas
what I did. I also noticed around the same time my hard drive was at 99%
capacity. I've since cleaned it up. This is where Linux gets fun.
Unfortunately my Google searches haven't helped.
