Hello, My system produces these messages that I already know well from current list (as well ;): TIMEOUT - WRITE_DMA retrying (2 retries left) LBA=213249674 I would like to report my experiences with 5.3 RELEASE/STABLE/B7 After these messages the two former cases result in FAILURE and finally in panic. Even background fsck cannot run without another panic, only single user mode can help. All these prevent using them on my HW. However B7, although displays the messages as well, works seemingly fine. For the time being, this version is sufficent, but I'd like to know - if possible at all - what the difference could be between the versions and if one can expect to bring the actual 5.3 version's state to B7's in this respect? I also found that pendrive's sensing by 5.3 RELEASE/STABLE more frequently results in panic than B7's. (As a matter of fact I have not seen panic with B7 for weeks since I installed it.) I use the following either with GENERIC or custom kernel: Abit NF7-S (nVidia chipsets, SiI3112 on board), Athlon 2600+, 114498MB <SAMSUNG SP1213C/SV100-27> [232632/16/63] at ata2-master SATA150 LEXAR MEDIA JUMPDRIVE, rev 1.10/0.01 Please cc it to me as well, since I'am not on the list for the time being. Many thanks! Zsolt -------------------- Zsolt Kuti
