Full description: Using 2.4-test11 compiled with SMP support on my Abit BP6 (dual celeron 500s) I get consistent lost interrupt errors on hda (my only disk). My test condition is untarring a 600mb archive of small files onto a FAT32 partition, which consistently fails. This usually results in processes refusing to die, followed by the keyboard locking up. The machine is still pingable, but remote logins fail. My test works fine in all 2.2 kernels I have tried and also in 2.4-test10. My IDE chipset is the PIIX4. At one point, I was forced to remove a FAT32 partition which became severely corrupted, so I'm not willing to do any further testing, sorry. Keywords: kernel, ide, smp, piix4 Environment: Debian woody GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4-test11-smp, Abit BP6 (celeron 500s), 128mb, 1 0GB IDE disk. -- (o_ | Toby Jaffey : www.nott.ac.uk/~psystrj/ //\ | "You're bound to be unhappy if you optimize everything." -- Donald E.
