Hi,
Not to much info I could resolve here, just a vague description.
I almost migrated my home system over safely to xfs but got bitten by ext2
this night trying to turn on DMA for the IDE drive.
Some programs started to oops and in the end I got an IO error from XFS (it
was trying to run a cron job so it hit /var).
XFS did not like what was happening so I got a IO error.
I can't remember the exact error because something fell over on my box to
make it reboot instantly after that.
ugh. Crud there went /usr (which was ext2).
I now have reformatted /usr with xfs. (lucky me had the old disks)
Is it supposed to reboot on a IO error?
btw test8 broke my scsi in a weird way. cdrecord now claims I don't have
scsi bus anymore. Building the sym53c8xx as a module and loading it results
in a loop of detecting my cdrom drive. I never knew I could hook up 999999>
CD Roms ;-).
Oh well building it in the kernel solves that.
This a standard redhat 6.2 box (stimpy.multiweb.nl) the box at work is a
redhat 7.0 box. Migration of the redhat 7.0 machine will start tommorow.
This all from just latest CVS i checked out.
Bye
Results to follow shortly.
