I have two systems: 1) 2005 HP ZE4650 laptop running 7.0RC1 i386 2) Brand-new FOXCONN 775? motherboard system running 7.0RC2 Amd64 They are both vanilla installs off of the ftp.freebsd.org ISO images, and they both behave similarly, so I know it's not the hardware. I also have two FAT devices: 1) 60GB laptop drive in USB 2.0 carrier 2) 1GB Lexar SD card in iRock cardreader In both systems, 1) The 60GB drives takes 10 seconds to mount (as opposed to 1/10 sec on my 6.3amd64 system at home). When I start rsyncing part of the 60GB to one of the 7.0 systems, it craps out after 5 minutes. If you umount, it says something to the effect that the drive is gone, and if you physically pull the USB cable, the system usually freezes up solid, until a powercycle. Once, most of the files rsync'd sucessfully, but the data was all corrupted. Age of the disk is several months, so I'd be suspicious that bad sectors are at fault. 2) The SD card appears to mount just fine, but when you cd to the mountpoint, ls -la & df shows that it's empty. Putting it into my 6.3 system or a win32 box shows approx 1GB of photos, of course. Thought someone should know. Since I've been having issues with it locking up, dmesg info is hard to come by, but I'm happy to work with someone smarter than me if it results in a more stable 7.0. I finished a large copy several hours ago, and I see several of the following in dmesg: "umass0: Invalid CSW: tag 242579 should be 242656". Several files are corrupted. No errors or issue when the data was placed on the drive by my 6.3amd64 system 24 hours ago. Best, Steve
