Karl Denninger stands accused of saying: > I understand this, but the problem has been manifest on two different > configurations with different vendors of hardware, disks, and two different > controllers. Still haven't seen a list of disk model numbers, firmware revisions & the like. The Identify strings at startup would be a start. > Do you really mean to try to tell me that two vendors have *identical* > firmware problems? Firmware problems with similar symptoms, sure. > I rate the probability of that somewhere close to a comet hitting the earth > today, especially when 2.0BSDI (which uses large transfer sizes and > contiguous operations) has no such problem. If you weren't in such a responsible position, (and I covered in shame after my recent outburst) I'd fall off my seat reading this. > Karl Denninger (karl@MCS.Net)| MCSNet - The Finest Internet Connectivity You're still not helping; even after Rod has enumerated _painfully_ the list of things that are _needed_ to be known before anything can usefully be done about your problem. -- ]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ ]] High-speed data acquisition and [[ ]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ ]] My car has "demand start" - Terry Lambert [[
