 |
|
Hello trying to install gentoo on dell poweredge 1300 with adaptec 2410sa hardware sata raid controller using 3x74 gb raptors.
all goes well until i try and build kernel which fails with reiserfs panic:
| Code: |
code: 0f 0b 6a 01 88 c6 3c c0 83 c4 0c 85 db b8 ez c1 3c c0 74 06
<4>ReiserFS: sda3: warning: journal-837: IO error during journal replay
scsii0 (0:0): rejeting I/O to offline device
REISERFS: panic (device sda3) : journal-712: buffer write failed
|
any ideas
cheers

Disabled reiserfs and try a diffrent filesystem? RAID card might be unhappy, ResierFS might be unhappy..
Also, what kernel version?

Umm, was thinking of trying different file system but as i want to use reiserfs this does not bode well,
kernel = gentoo-dev-sources 2.6.7-r11

Are you sure the drive is not faulty? it looks as if your only real option is to move back to an ext3 filesystem at the moment.

That's a good point, it could be a hardware problem - I'd also rebuild the array just to be safe.

Hope it is not a drive as they are 3 new 74gb raptors 
I wonder if it could be that i enabled buffer write for the array?
Did get warning when doing that there could be problems with lost data, but thought this would only be a problem with power outage!
will try with it disabled.

ok disabled write buffer on that array and kernel built ok, must be an issue with rieserfs and write buffer?

It's possible, have you tried a standard ext3 filesystem instead?

Update, ok was wrong, kernel built ok bu tried to emerge an app after and had same problem.
I rebooted livecd (had to) and tried to make rieserfs partition by doing:
| Code: |
mke2fs -j /dev/sda3
|
but this just got error about offline device, trying cfdisk /dev/sda3 again got error:
| Code: |
FSTEL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive
|
I am not sure what occuring here, pretty sure hardware is working fine, maybe a kernel module problem or even bios setup, going to try disbaling acpi at boot and see if this helps.
any suggestion welcome 
cheers

ok, did some research and found that the aacraid kernel module has had some problems, crashing when reading end of file table etc, though most of post i found were from last year, though did find a mailing list post from alan cox regarding aacraid
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=adaptec+2410sa+linux+dell&hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&selm=27PZk-11n-15%40gated-at.bofh.it&rnum=10
Some of these problems seem related to smp system or hyperthreading so i tried bootiing with single cpu kernel
then tried to build extn3 file system but got following errors
| Code: |
writing inode tables: spurious 8259a interupt: irq7
aacraid: Host adapter reset request. scsi hang?
I/O error: dev 08:03, sector (list of numbers) repeated many times
|
looks like this could be the aacraid kernel module, how upto date is the latest live cd aacraid module? (which i am using)
