Well, the situation is improving, I suppose ... Under kernel 2.4.0 and 2.4.1, a dd of about 1 4k blocks would cause the system to go technicolor and lock up. Now, under 2.4.1-ac13, at about 11000 blocks, it goes technicolor, but doesn't lock up until somewhere between 13000 and 2.

The system in question is an API UP1100 based system, running 4 Maxtor 40gb IDE drives off the ALI M15x3 chipset. This applies to kernel 2.4.0 and 2.4.1. The drives are identified as follows from hdparm: Model=Maxtor 54098H8, FwRev=DAC10SC0, SerialNo=K80F1ZFC Is also has an Adaptec 29160
