Subject:   What can I make of this SCSI error(s)
Message-ID:  <199711050259.QAA09055@caliban.dihelix.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Busy machine runs days no problem. Recently when trying to 
backup the files systems the machine hangs/locks up. 

I had been trying to use compressed tar to the tape. It manages to do various
amounts of data (at least several Gigs) and sometimes even completes
without a hitch.

However when it hangs it really hangs. Requires power cycling. If I just reset
the box then it requires going into the BIOS and resetting the PCI/PnP settings.

Here is the errors the preceeded that last meltdown followed by the dmesg 
output for this box.

Thanks for any thoughts,
