Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 840 Lines: 24 2.5.24-dj1 gave me files with zeroed blocks inside. What I did: I untarred the source for lyx 1.2.0 and tried to compile it, several times. gcc and make choked on occational blocks of zeroes inside files, different places each time. Going back to 2.5.18 fixed it. This isn't all that surprising considering that the raid driver logs complaints about requests bigger than 32k, which is the stripe size. I believed this worked by retrying with much smaller requests, perhaps I am wrong? The filesystems use 4k blocks. I haven't seen any trouble on non-raid or raid-1 partitions.
