Hello group, I read through this newsgroup and could see people with problems in kernel 2.4.19 and the PDCs, but usually they cannot see their disks, RAID is not working... so I am not sure if I belong to the same problem field. I working on an ASUS A7V133 which has a built in PDC20265. I have two Maxtor 160GB disks connected as masters which are /dev/hde and /dev/hdg. When I was running 2.4.18, it all worked fine, except my drives were only 137GB. So I decided to upgrade to 2.4.19-ac4, repartitioned and reformatted my drives - and voila, they are 160 GB now. Everything works perfectly, except: Whenever I copy files from /dev/hde1 to /dev/hdg1 (users backup to hde1, then I copy the stuff to back them up to tape from hdg1) the system freezes completely. It just stops reacting, the screen looks like a still image. Is there anything wrong with 2.4.19, -ac4, my configuration? It would be great if anyone of you could help me, this problem drives me crazy. Especially since I can use the two disks seperately, just no copies from one to the other. My PDC Config looks like that: CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PDC202XX=y CONFIG_PDC202XX_BURST=y # CONFIG_PDC202XX_FORCE is not set If the problem comes from the -ac4-patch, can I install the large disk patch (> 137GB) standalone without using ac4? Thanks a lot for your help, Torben -- +++ GMX - Mail, Messaging & more http://www.gmx.net +++ NEU: Mit GMX ins Internet. Rund um die Uhr für 1 ct/ Min. surfen!
