except the areca driver the machine is rock solid, with the 29th

extract of a large tar file, removal
of a large directory structure, or pretty much anything that does a lot of disk io to different files/locations. There is no error log prior to
seeing the following messages..

There are a string of these, followed by a crash and reboot. The file system
[...]
Areca 1.20.00.13 (as currently in the tree) does not seem to have
data corruption problems, but I can trigger g_vfs_done failures
under heavy I/O.

I have raised this with Areca support, and I'm waiting to hear back
from Erich Chen.

I discussed this issue in length with the release engineering team today, and we're going to go ahead with keeping the .013 version in
6.2 since it has been working very reliably for a number of other
testers, and reverting it at this late stage of the release represents

Mybe it's unrelated to the areca driver, I can reproduce a similar
panic with ggate:

Cannot dump. No dump device defined.
Automatic reboot in 15 seconds - press a key on the console to abort

Unfortunately I have only this production machine...

I don't see how they could be related. I've committed a fix for the Areca problem.
