Hi!


Just for the record.
The owner of the shop was nice enough to get me a replacement card,
despite the fact that I was running it on a "not supported" operating
system :)

The funny thing is, with the new card the error messages wouldn't appear
right away. For example I could unpack the big archive I was testing the
card with without errors, but the above error messages would appear
after some minutes.
So what I did and what seems to be the solution is, I've disabled both
IDE channels on the mainboard. Now I've got only the SATA card's two
hard disks. And I have the possibility (in the mainboard's BIOS) to
change the IRQ priority regarding the PCI slots; I've set the highest
priority to the SATA card, and I've distributed the rest to the other
devices (two NICs).

Now it has been running with stress-tests for one and a half day and it
seems to be stable.
Oh, and this is with 5.1-stable; I tried with -current but it kneeled
down too.
