On a whim, I applied the following patches: master.kernel.org:/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jejb/scsi-rc-fixes-2.6.git to my linux 2.6.34-rc5 kernel for testing. Without the patches, my system would stay running for no more than 2 or three days before erroring out and requiring a reboot before visibility of the disk returned. After applying the SCSI rc fixes from James' git repo, my system is now at 5+ days of streaming to the scsi disk. I'll keep watching this and post another status update in a few days. Thanks for all the hard work. -- "It's pronounced Layf...you know, like Leif Garrett? Don't you watch 'I Love the 70's'?
