Hi Gaurav,
I don't know the reason behind your dma_intr error, but on my seagate 17GB
HDD I get very poor hdparm results.
Timing buffer-cache reads: 128 MB in 2.95 seconds = 70 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 64 MB in 12.59 seconds = 4.00 MB/sec
Yesterday I applied the path of kernel 2.4.1 and now I am on 2.4.1 on
my debian but still the results remain the same :-)
Regards
Rajesh
