Hi Arjen,
I suspect you are being hit by the scsi layer here - you are seeing two
error reports, the first one is the scsi layer reporting an error, the
second is xfs reporting it got an I/O error from the scsi layer.
Apart from hex vs decimal, they are both complaining about the same
disk block.
Have you tried some raw I/O tests to the same device without a filesystem
on it?
I'll try and do some testing (specific suggestions are welcome); I am
pretty sure this is a SCSI layer issue, especially since any kernel before
2.4.10 will not even see the partition on LUN 1; I was hoping maybe
somebody had encountered the same problem.
What In do find strange however, is that xfs_check/xfs_repair see no errors
on the filesystem, considering the error message about errors writing metadata.
