I just built a new system with an adaptec 2940 u2w and 4 IBM 4.5GB drives
running raid 5 with redhat 6.0. I set it up with the redhat stock kernel and
then tried to upgrade to a kernel that I built. I tried 2.2.6 + raid patches
and things seemed to be fine for a while then I started getting timeout
errors. I have since tried everythink that I can think of: going back to the
redhat kernel, swapping out the card, setting the transfer rate in the card to
40Mb/s. Is anyone else having similar problems? What could cause this? Does
this even have anything to do with the raid?
