I did some more tests (I'm becoming a big fan of the ext3 filesystem). The lockup also occurs with older kernels like 2.6.0-test1 and 2.4.20. A sure way to reproduce the problem is running the following one-liner with a DOS floppy in the drive: find / & mdir Disabling DMA with "hdparm -d0" doesn't help, although the kernel messages are different. I now get: hda: lost interrupt What could be the cause for this. Is my hardware dying? And if yes, what part? Any tips on how to isolate this problem? I know for sure that my floppy worked two months ago, but I don't known when it worked for the last time. -- Dick Streefland //// De Bilt dick.streefland@xs4all.nl (@ @) The Netherlands ------------------------------oOO--(_)--OOo------------------ - 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/
