What old old binutils ?
Isn't there a clear requirement for a minimum binutils version in

ATA , SCSI and ATAPI all have a FLUSH_CACHE command. (*)
Whether the drives implement it is another question ...

I don't understand.
This doesn't explain (value) is bigger than (max).
Are you saying that (value) is counted from 1 , while
(max) ( and min too ? ) is counted from 0 ?

/home in your fstab by its label, then you must
change this before you insert the other disk. Possibilities :
( to change in /etc/fstab)
- use UUID instead of volume-label -> no conflicts ever

A recent 2.4.0 ( not the final , but close ) kernel prints this :
mtrr: detected mtrr type: intel
I have an AMD K7 Duron 700 CPU
Is this correct ?
It also reports something like :
