Re: 2.6.0-test7: ide / reiserfs errors? (reiserfs_read_locked_inode)

[Wes Janzen <superchkn@sbcglobal.net>]

Hi,

I'm seeing no such errors with IDE and reiserfs, I've been up 4 days now 
without any problems (well, some ppp/eth problems, but I digress).

I'd try leaving off the "idebus=66" for starters.  I looked in ide.txt 
and that data looks pretty old.  I'm not sure if you should need that 
except in unusual situations.  I've not used it both for my PDC20269 or 
the VIA MVP3 IDE and everything has worked fine, but then my board 
doesn't support PCI 2.2 hence I'm of course running the PCI bus at 33 
Mhz.  From that log, specifically:

Oct 12 20:19:49 localhost kernel: ide0: Drive 0 didn't accept speed
setting. Oh, well.

AND

i/o failure occurred trying to find stat data of [373169 373170 0x0 SD]

It looks to me like your drive isn't communicating correctly with the controller and IIRC the IDE timing is based off the bus speed.  So if it's sending data to your drive at the wrong speed, it won't recognize what you're trying to tell it to do.  Although I'm pretty much speaking out of my ass here and haven't recently viewed the source for your particular driver, it's still worth at least trying a ro mount without the idebus parameter to verify if this is the cause of the problem.
