Subject: st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes.
Date: Tue, 19 Feb 2002 11:57:07 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <000201c1b96e$d8921d00$0300a8c0@yellow> (raw)

I've been experiencing mysterious lockups since upgrading to kernel
2.4.17.  Looking in the /var/log/messages I hadn't seen anything
suspicious until now.  I guess the machine hasn't had time to write this
to disk except every now and then.  The message

Feb 19 11:29:55 butler kernel: st0: Block limits 1 - 16777215 bytes.

I notice this after rebooting after the crash.  So I tried manually
doing a tar to the tape drive and was able to successfully lock the
machine up.  Can someone help me understand this and if it is simply a
limit problem, why would the machine lock up?

Thank you.
