As always, comments are welcome. Wanted to continue some usb-storage work on 2.5 and recklessly booted 2.5.25. It survived for several hours, then deadlocked. Two filesystems turned out to be corrupted. Wouldn't mind if the rock solid 2.4 handling of HPT366 was carefully copied to 2.5, that today quickly causes corruption and quickly deadlocks or crashes. [Yes, these are independent bugs. The fact that the current IDE code writes to random disk sectors is much more annoying than the fact that it crashes and deadlocks. This random writing is observed only on disks on the HPT366 card.] Andries - 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/
