Alan,
Happy new year and many thanks for your help. I took the information from
the prior submissions and wanted to see if the Promise sub-system was my
failure point. I put a drive on the Secondary IDE bus hanging off the
motherboard Nvidia NForce 2 controller, began an access and pulled the plug.
Sure enough the failures occured and were passed back to user level, but
the system did not hang. I've repeated this a number of times. I moved the
same drive to the Promise Controller and the hang occurs. Thus it seems we
have proved the Promise sub-system is my problem.
You suggested the something like IORDY hanging was not likely the problem.
Given the data, what would you suspect? I've included the message logs for
the NForce for comparison.

If you are using the sg ioctls then the commands are dispatched and the
results come through the request queues but not the block layer above.
In that case you really shouldn't be seeing a hang.
