I'm having an issue where when I copy files, they are not copying
correctly - they are corrupt, I've checked using cmp, and generating
md5sum There are no errors I can see from cp, rsync.
Initially I though it was a problem with an external USB drives now
after some testing it seem to be normal SATA drives as well. I've got
a few drives in the box and they all have the same issue.
I thought it might be memory - but memtest runs fine, and I
tried taking out a couple of the sticks - I have 4x2Gb no difference.
I've written a little rsync script to copy some files around, rsync
once, then rsync again, using checksum - in theory the second run
should have nothing to do, but will randomly have to re-copy files.
Strangely I tried booting off of a live distro ( System Rescue 32bit )
and didn't get any errors.
The system seem to run fine generally - but I started noticing some of
the big files I was syncing to external drives where erroring. Just
repeatedly running md5sum on a file gives consistent results - I would
have though if was a memory problem that would have give different results.
I've turned AHCI on in BIOS recently as I've install a WD Raptor,
and re-installed F10 - would that affect filesystems on other
drives - is AHCI buggy ?
I'm using Fedora 10 64bit, Asus P5Q-E Motherboard,
Q9950 ( stock speed ), 8Gb Corsair memory
Any guesses, Kernel bug ? Hardware ? Hopefully not hardware as its
a fairly recent build.
My Test some runs are better some are worse ....
