I am trying to get a 9550SX to support a 1.5TB raid partition. I am unsure
whether this is a driver problem, or an ext3 problem (as am getting some
other wierdness detecting LUNs), but...
I forgot to say, I think the underlying disk is OK and is not aliasing. I
tried Stephen Tweedie's verify-data and it seems to be OK (I am taking it
the error can, as it claims, be ignored). The same happens if I run it
to /dev/sdb5.
Furthermore, mkfs -treiserfs seems to run OK (though it takes a couple of
minutes). So I am beginning to think this is ext3 (or ext3 tools) related.
