That sounds less stable than mine. Currently my ss20 has been up for
about 60 hours with 2.6.12 and survived a couple kernel recompiles (I
did a 'make clean; make all' overnight to verify). The only problem
I've seen is when the scsi driver goes nuts and requires a power cycle
to recover, which seems to happen more frequently when the disk cache is
cold, but I haven't noticed any actual corruption recently.
Here's my current configuration:
hypersparc 150MHz, 512K cache
192MB ram (no highmem)
ext2/ext3 partitions
kernel 2.6.12 compiled with gcc 3.3.4
My suspicion is that highmem may cause problems. I'll try rearranging
the ram this weekend and see if I can make an initrd fail.
