Hmm.. :) I was too lazy to reboot one more time, i just kill suspicious processes like cron, sendmail etc. :) > but may I ask why you find it necessary to downgrade? See followup to PR kern/57174 for details :( Shortly, my Maxtor 6Y200 attached to CMD648 controller brings the system into panic, and without using tags. Maximum uptime was about 30 minutes :( I looked into ata(4) code and decided that there is some logic error (especially taking into account that panic() in ata(4) 4.9 appeared after significant rewrite ata_dmastart() code). Then, after downgrading my system in question to 4.8-p13 - flight is excellent, 1 day ok. I really want to eliminate this error, but at least some days I cannot duplicate the same hardware configuration to investigate the problem... -- Pavel Gubin TUSC&R / Industrial Electronics dept / System Administrator 2:5005/14@fidonet / Phone +7-3822-423067 / ICQ 28835566
