Two weeks ago, I tried two patches against 2.4.21 regarding LBA48 support. One limits the size of a drive to 137GB if LBA48 is not available. Without this patch, severe data corruption is possible. http://gondor.com/linux/patch-limit48-2.4.21 The other one is making LBA48 support work with pdc 20265 controllers. http://gondor.com/linux/patch-pdc-lba48-2.4.22 I think they should be candidates for inclusion in 2.4.23, as well as a fix for hdparm -I (and other commands going directly to the drive) on (some?) promise controllers: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=104250818527780&w=2 Jan - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
