Hi.
The last month or so I've experienced some strangeness with one of my boxes. It is up and running without any problems and then suddently i get this in the syslog:
Mar 6 20:29:42 eurisco kernel: hdf: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x61
(sometimes dma status has been 0x41)
And a few seconds later the system has frozen and I have to reset the box to get it back up and running.
It isn't always the same hdX. If I remove the device that produces the error another device, but it's allways a device on the promise controller, fails.
I've seen this behaviour with 2.4.25, 2.4.24 and 2.4.23 (I think).
Any ideas?
