I've been running LM 7.2 for a while w/o problems and I've been using this
hdparm tuning string:
hdparm -c3 -m16 /dev/hda
After switching to the 2.2.19 kernel, I get this message:
error message:
hda: task_no_data_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: task_no_data_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
hda: Write Cache FAILED Flushing!
I presumed that this is bad so I switch back to the earlier kernel - does
anyone know a way of preventing this?
Here is more info on the drive
