I have a Maxtor 40GB IDE disk split into 2 slices. The first slice is 1GB with swap and root(/) in it and the second has a single 38GB file system. I created everything when I installed 3.3 on the system (Athlon, all ide devices) and the install worked without errors. After reboot, the large FS showed mounted but I couldn't write to it. I got "bad file descriptor". So, I unmounted and tried to remount. First try, mount segfaulted. Second try, I got back to "bad file descriptor". I would rate this as severe since it basically puts the machine out of commission. I had planned on adding more 40GB drives hoping to take advantage of FreeBSD's large file support/NFSV3. On a side note, the drive worked fine under Linux kernel 2.2.5 from RH6.0 so I know it is healthy. If someone has some ideas on how to debug/test a fix, please let me know. Thanks.
