I have "the usual problem" with a Genesys USB-to-IDE controller.
It seems to me, that the problem is in the chipset. And I have no idea what to do on that, beside of contacting the vendor.

In the last hours I investigated more on the data on the disks: If I write controlled data and try to compare it, then I can produce the problem under linux and windows and something interesting happens:


Under Linux (2.6.9, unpatched) an IO error occurs in the application. After remounting the partition I can try to reread the file and every thing is ok.

Under Windows it seems to me, that the system "buffers" the error. I see an entry in the event log, but the application did not see the error.

Would it be possible to do the same in linux? I know, that this is a hack but maybe it is better than to throw an error ...

With kind regards,
Dirk
