Hi all,

I have been having a problem and don't know where else to turn.  I am hoping
someone on this list has seen a similar problem.

At one of my jobs we have an HP LC 3 with an embedded AIC-7880 controller.
I am running Red Hat  6 Linux with 2.2.12 kernel (now, I was running 2.2.11
for a couple of weeks).  When I bought the machine last summer, it had one
4.2GB hard drive and a DAT DDS3 tape drive.  It ran Red Hat 5.2 2.0.36 for
months with no down time.  A couple months ago I added a 9.1GB drive.  This
is where the problems began.  I now get the errors below about once every 3
days, and they usually begin in the middle of the night after I finish
backup.  If I shut down the machine and reboot, after fsck all is fine and I
get a couple of more days of use out of it.

Originally we though this was a hardware problem. HP replaced most of the
machine.  Still the problems remain.  If I remove the 9.1GB drive, the
problems stop.  Next I upgraded to a newer distribution with a newer kernel,
and still the problems.

HP Linux support can't give me any help (I'm trying to figure out why we are
paying them).

Anyway, I just don’t know what to do to solve this problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Stuart
