2.4.1 lvm reiserfs adaptec 2940uw noritake alpha

[Wakko Warner]

I have 3 2gb disks in an lvm group (vg is disks)
I have an lv of 1.6gb (misc) with reiserfs mounted /lvm/misc
I cp /dev/zero /lvm/misc

If these 3 drives are on the internal qlogic isp controller, I have no
problems.

If these 3 drives are on the adaptec aha-2940UW, I get an oops (reply for
oops as I have to do it again and capture it) and the system locks (in
interrupt handler, not syncing) when the copy completes.  I did a timed cp
the first time and it took 3.5 minutes and crashed as soon as I got the
prompt.  I'm assuming when the bufferes were flushed to the drives.

When I reboot and copy the file, it works.  I don't have any problems
copying files with these drives on either controller.

I have the adaptec card on the primary pci bus if that makes a difference
