Sorry to bother you all but Problem:
I compiled 2.0.29 last night ( while sleeping so i missed any warnings etc) make mrproper make config nice make ; nice make modules ; make modules_install
Today - i woke make zlilo rebooted to see it work - shutdown and went to work; when got home
I had running Workman X pine that's about all
I pressed stop on ( Joe Satriani ) workman and went to watch tv at about 21:24 when i came back at 22:50 i found my computer writing to disk alot filling my syslog with ( about 2 times a second - about how often workman checks the cd status )

I thought Blow this and rebooted about then
here's some info on my system
potato kernel: Linux version 2.0.29 (root@potato) (gcc version 2.7.2) #2 Fri Feb 14 08:57:34 NZDT 1997 potato kernel: hda: WDC AC21000H, 1033MB w/128kB Cache, LBA, CHS=525/64/63 potato kernel: hdb: WDC AC2340H, 325MB w/128kB Cache, LBA, CHS=1010/12/55 potato kernel: hdc: WPI CDD-820, ATAPI CDROM drive potato kernel: hdd: Maxtor 7290 AT, 276MB w/64kB Cache, CHS=941/14/43
isofs is a module , my system is all modules except ext2 and elf
running slack 3.1 XFree 3.1.2 ( yea i know oldoldold etc upgrade etc )
486DX2/66 ; QD65?? VLB EIDE ; yada yada
root@potato:~# ls -l /usr/ope*/bin/work* /dev/hdc /dev/cdrom lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Jan 22 09:46 /dev/cdrom -> /dev/hdc brw-rw-rw- 1 root disk 22, 0 May 8 1995 /dev/hdc -rwxr-xr-x 1 root bin 120023 Aug 8 1995 /usr/openwin/bin/workman*
my CD-ROM ( Wearnes CDD-820 ) spins down after a while and ( from 2.0.26-2.0.29 maybe earlier but i have not had it long ) can be ejected even when mounted , i suspect this was trigered by the cdrom spining down and workman reading from it ??
I now have a data cd in and i'm gonna see if it can cause the errors without workman
ooh look a different one in my syslog Feb 15 00:26:52 potato kernel: hdc: media changed Feb 15 00:27:06 potato kernel: hdc: packet command error: status=0x51 Feb 15 00:27:06 potato kernel: hdc: packet command error: error=0x50 Feb 15 00:27:06 potato kernel: hdc: code: 0x70 key: 0x05 asc: 0x64 ascq: 0x00
I realize this is a user space program causing the volume of errors , but they were not there in 2.0.28
