I have not been able to reproduce the problem on my testbox (Since I
test this onder VMware, hardware is not comparable to the production
machine). I did update the kernel with the newer version in te
repositories (Now running linux-image-2.6.26-1-686, 2.6.26-13lenny2)
but the problem still exists.
To keep the system workable (and prevent long lockups) I set the
resync speed to 2MB/s resulting in a two day resync time for the
array. Though even at 2MB/s the system still lockes up only for
shorter periods of time. Still getting the same messages in dmesg, see
attached txt file.
