RE: Issues with sata_nv and 2 disks under 2.6.16 and 2.6.17-rc2

Is your OS installed either sda or sdb?

Because I get this type of message using a single disk... On which my FC5 stands...

I'll give it a try tonight and see if I can cause the problem manually but I doubt I'll be able to stop the system from hanging...  Unless my bug is not related.

I can duplicate my problem everything, and I can make it stop a will.

doing "dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/null bs=64k &"

and then

        "dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/null bs=64k &"

will cause the problem within a couple of seconds.

Doing "kill %1 %2" (assuming the dd's are %1 and %2) will stop the machine from hanging on disk io within 30-60 seconds.

Once it hangs it does not appear to do any disk io until the offending processes are killed.
