Hi
I was just wondering if there is any support for the 82371mx accelerator
in the IDE driver. It doesn't appear that way to me, but that can be my
fault :)
Just to be precise. I'm talking about this chip:
ftp://download.intel.com/support/chipsets/430mx/290525.pdf
I have tried stock debian

I know, but as you wrote, the marketing department and so forth.

I figured out it had to be something along those lines, but I'm not sur
Hi There
I am trying to develop a device mapper plugin which does transparent
block encryption and sector shuffling in the style freebsd does it (GBDE)
Reads are support and working, but have trouble getting writes to work
properly.
If I do a simple:
echo "test" > /mnt/test (where /mnt is /dev/
> > dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/testfile count=N, N>6
It turns out N>6 is variable. But large enough and it will hang. Sugests
some kind of race I am afraid.

Not quite the same, but simelar:
Feb 23 14:50:24 localhost kernel: __find_get_blo
Something has caused the page at offset 51 (block 102) to have buffer_heads
for blocks 128 and 129 attached to it.
Ok.
I'd be suspecting that the sector remapping is the cause of the problem.
How is it implemented?
Quite simple actually. You're most welcome to see the code, but I have
just done a
I don't know. Can you describe how your driver implements the remapping?
I have tested with ext2. I get double faults when trying to sync.
What are those? (By the look of the error message, I can see they are
not something I want to have :-)
I'm at loss how all of this can happend. All I do is
