Hi,

after upgrading to 2.2-Stable i got several errors with the ahc 
driver (mostly when dumping a large filesystems to hp dat).

This errors sometimes caused a reboot, sometimes freezes the machine.
They are the same as some of you have also reported (time outs etc).

But last thursday something strange happened:
after some days with successful backups i noticerd, that the machine 
is rebooting while doing a dump. But it cant boot because the _disk 
geometry_ has changed to 2millions/1/1.

After some problems with the restore procedure i switched to a ncr 
scsi controller. No problems anymore.

Just FYI,

Jochen
