SubjectFS corruption on Dell Inspiron 8k w/ IBM-DJSA-220
I've had quite a lot of problems with my Dell Inspiron 8000 laptop under
Linux, with random filesystem corruption and arbitrary kernel panics on (I
believe) high disk traffic. I have an IBM DJSA-220 20 gig harddisk:

/dev/hda:

Model=IBM-DJSA-220, FwRev=JS4OAC3A, SerialNo=44K44SH8203
Config={ HardSect NotMFM HdSw>15uSec Fixed DTR>10Mbs }
RawCHS=16383/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=4
BuffType=DualPortCache, BuffSize=1874kB, MaxMultSect=16, MultSect=16
CurCHS=16383/16/63, CurSects=16514064, LBA=yes, LBAsects=39070080
IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:240,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}
PIO modes: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4

I think other people have problems with similar setups, as recorded for
example in the thread starting here:

http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0110.0/0627.html

Anyway, I just got a "Kernel BUG" dump so I figured since this problem
seems to have stuck with us for a while I might as well report it here and
see if anyone might wanna make a go at it. I'm running the kernel that
ships with RH 7.3, reportedly 2.4.18-3. I was in runlevel 1 with basically
no other user processes running (it happened during a partition transfer),
which is good except that I couldn't copy and paste the dump to file. Thus,
the log below has been typed manually by me -- I was quite careful but
there may be typos.
