Hello,

I can't get my system working stable _until_ I define
ATA_ENABLE_WC in my kernel-config!

I get this message _many_ times when I write to my Fujitsu 40GB-Harddisk:

/kernel: ata3: resetting devices .. done
/kernel: ad6: WRITE command timeout tag=0 serv=0 - resetting

There are not only those annoying messages but also there are very long
access delays (5-10 secs!). During these delays the disk-access LED
stays red and there is absolutely no response from the
_entire_ disk I/O-system.

Turning off WC by default may break the stability of
some harddrives!

Anyone out there who can verify that with a FUJITSU "MPG3409AT E"?

IMO this behavior should be clarified before 4.3-Release!


Boris
