that's my scsi file:

and that are the kernel msgs i get when this error happens (i included the
startup msgs too; and yes: it's the same without "no_reset"!):

and now for the funniest thing, i found out:

i have my kernel sources in /usr/src/linux
and i created a dir called /usr/src/a
then i did "cp /usr/src/linux /usr/src/a -r" (or i copied /usr/src/linux
recur. with "mc" to /usr/src/a)
so my ext2 was pretty hmm 'stressed' maybe...

then i opened another console and did "cd /dos/c/Temp"
i have lots of files and dirs there...whereever i usually do "ls" that error
happens
now, while my ext2 was workin hard to copy the files i did "ls -R" and it
worked
without any problems....i reproduced it several times....so while my ext2 is
working
i can really "use" fat32 on my scsi (works fine on my ide)...of course it's
slower
but that's really strange i think....someone emailed me, he has a different
quantum
hdd but had the same problem...i have firmware L912...he said he upgraded to
L915 and then everything was fine....even if it's not the soloution, i would
like to
know where on the quantum homepage i can download the req. files!!!
(i'm a version freak; i download any new driver/kernel pre-patch or
whatever)

my 2940uw is (latest) bios version 1.34.3

thanx for reading...
