Hi, Well I have this new computer, when I installed debian stable on it, I kept on getting dma_errors messages, and badblocks found some bad sectors.
Now I have few questions (sorry if some of them are annoying ;)): 1. Is there any patch for the Kernel that makes this type of error messages much more friendlier (even a 3rd party project is good). 2. At the beginning the place that this computer where bought made a QA with Windows, with NTFS, but it could not find this bad sectors, so what does the Linux kernel does different to find such problems that users can not find it in Windows ? 3. There was a rummer that I/O in 2.6 should be rewritten, to make it more stable on errors, was there any such approach on the new kernels ?
