A more complete log about my disk access errors

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello, listers!
I hope those of you who are experts in kernel bugs or interaction of kernel
with the hardware can help me with this. Since I installed Redhat 7.1 I
started to get the messages that RedHat cannot communicate through DMA with
my hard drives. I know for sure that my hard drives can communicate through
DMA, plus I was never getting similar messages before. Shon suggested for
me to check whether UltraDMA support was compiled into my kernel, but I,
firstly, do not understand why it should be included into kernel, and
secondly, why would Redhat ignore including UltraDMA support in the first
place.
Iam therefore attaching the complete log from the messages buffer ring
produced by the `dmesg' command.
Please let me know if you have any idea and where should I look for
possible solutions.
WIndows 2000 is very happy about my drives, whereas Linux complains about
them. However, after kernel disables DMA transfer mode, it goes pretty
fine. Please ignore any messages about SWAP...
Best and thanks in advance,
Vic
