(Just recompiled with a cp GENERIC JOVIAL; and configed from there, even with GENERIC and the only addition being options QUOTA it would do this)
>Description:
SIS makes crappy hardware :)
5591 ATA chipset and QUOTA (userquotas) don't get along.
>How-To-Repeat:
Take a fresh 4.9-RELEASE install done on an SIS board with the 5591 (atapci0: <SiS 5591 ATA100 controller> port 0xff00-0xff0f at device 2.5 on pci0) ATA controller and add "options QUOTA" to the kernel, build, enable userquotas on your filesystem of choice and restart. To encourage locking enable some quotas and do a quotacheck. Otherwise just wait.
>Fix:
a) Use real hardware. b) Live without quotas.
>Release-Note:
>Audit-Trail:
>Unformatted:
t use quotas.
