| |
I am experiencing a problem with the 2.3.41 kernel. This problem has now occured twice today. I have two IDE hard drives on my system and the problem seems to happen when both are being used simultaneously. Here is how I get the problem to happen:
1. I have stuff running in the background accessing /dev/hdb 2. I start wine (release 20000109) , which accesses the windows partition on /dev/hda1 and /dev/hda5 3. All disk access stops and the system appears to be hung. If I get to a shell prompt or a login prompt and I hit return, all I get back is "hda: lost interrupt" 4. I hit the power button to reboot. 5. When the fsck runs during the reboot, it gets through /dev/hdb5 fine. 6. When fsck tries to simultaneously check /dev/hda7 and /dev/hdb7 it hangs. The only way out is to hit the power button again. To get the system back up, I have to boot with an older kernel (2.2.13). After the first time this happened I updated fsck (from 1.14 to 1.18), but the problem has now happened again, so this did not fix the problem.
Here is some info on my system after I got things up and running and rebooted the new kernel:
