Re: RAID5 causing lockups

drives are silent.  No activity at all.

Maybe i'll give it a try tonight again.  I can give it a bunch more
horsepower (have it underclocked because the system is basicly a big disk)
maybe if I have more available CPU, the arrays will be a bit more busy if
they really are rebuilding.

still, the problem causes top to stop.  I wouldn't think that would be a
problem if the array was just rebuilding...
