I'll give this a try. None of the 2.6.28-rcX versions I've tried have lasted more than a few hours at best before panicing with a block layer timeout. My test system uses the aic7xxx driver with a 2930U2 adapter. I didn't report the regression relative to 2.6.27 because I figured something this major was going to get caught without another "me too" report that I was too busy to generate and provide the necessary diagnostic and followup on anyway :-).
