Hi, i'm tracking really strange file system corruption (both reiserfs & xfs) on soft-raid-5 and lvm using 4 ibm drives as masters on HPT374
now the more strange part is, that this used to work perfectly on my previous mainboard Epox 8K5A3+, but the board stoped working (unsuccefull CPU update) and i had to upgrade to epox 8K9A3+. Since the update i'm seeing this fs corruption, and the difference between both boards is only KT333(old board) <-> KT400 (new board) may be newer HPT374 BIOS(1.24) on the new board and a number of KT400 issues with ACPI/IO-APIC which seems to be mostly resolved with recent kernels. so i#m looking for any kind of pointers for debuging, and i just saw that in the mdk kernel taskfile is enabled, i remmebered that a while ago taskfile was marked "eating data" have i missed smth? when was it activated in the -mdk kernel ? any pointers for debugging the fs corruption? and about the corruption: rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.22.x.mdk.src.rpm for i in 1 2 3; do rpmbuild -ba kernel-2.4.spec;done would end on the 2nd or 3rd run with smth like: ...... linux-2.4.21.tar.bz2 obsolated header the archive seems brocken, you might want to try recoverring it with .... ...... best, svetljo --
