FYI: I've a SATA system, which tells me the volume, plexe and subdisks
are crashed on every boot. When I just do a "setstate up" I can fsck and
use the volume just fine. It runs with an icc comiled kernel ATM, but I
see the same behavior with a gcc compiled kernel. I also get spurious
interrupts at a shutdown and I think this is the reason of this failure
after booting the system... Am I right or should I try to dig into this?
Bye,
Alexander.
