           Summary: Corruption/crash when attempting to access hard drive
                    (intensively?)
           Product: IO/Storage
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.33 and later
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: P1
         Component: Serial ATA
        AssignedTo: jgarzik at pobox.com
        ReportedBy: hazed at xs4all.nl
        Regression: No


I cannot use any newer kernel than 2.6.32 without the whole machine crashing
due to some kind of strange disk error. I reported the bug to Debian and the
maintainer (Ben Hutchinson) asked me to report it to you guys.

In a nutshell, if I try to unpack a compressed DVD downloaded from internet
(yes, the illegal ones) then I get corruption, segfaults and nasty error
messages. Rebooting back into the 2,6.32 kernel and unpacking the same files
works just fine. The 3.0 kernel is also giving me the same problems.

attempt to access beyond end of device
sda1: rw=0, want=6215319704, limit=964683776

This also triggers segfaults on just about any program I try to run after above
errors until I reboot back into the good kernel.

Thanks.

Matthew
