I also upgraded the bios / firmware of the mylex... Since that (a week ago), the problem seems to be solved... btw, the problem is better "known" when you are the author of the driver isn't it ? ;-)) thanx again -- ------------------------------- --> julien@iside.net ------------------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Smith" To: "julien" Cc: ; "cristophe baillon" Sent: Wednesday, May 30, 2001 9:37 PM Subject: Re: mylex raid card problem on 4.2-stable > > Hi all, > > > > We have a quite disapointing problem with a mylex 170 card, which causes > > a system crash every 6 hours. > > This card is installed in a VA Linux 2240 with 4 18GB drives, configured > > in a single RAID 5 pack, running a FreeBSD 4.2-stable system. > > There are known problems with the 'mly' driver in the 4.2 release.
