what happens if you replace '-d ata' with '-d sat'?
Nice. Thanks! This solves the problem completely on the sata_nv controller.
Good. One down, one to go.
There's a lingering issue with the drive on the sata_sil controller --
enabling Autosave generates a device error:
Device: /dev/sdc, opened
Device: /dev/sdc, not found in smartd database.
Device: /dev/sdc, enabled SMART Attribute Autosave.
kernel: ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0
<SNIP>
Write to the sata_sil maintainer (is this Jeff Garzik?) and tell him that
the problem may be that these Autosave and Auto-offline command stick
large values in the ATA sector count register WITHOUT transfering any
data. If so, (s)he should be able to fix the sat_sil driver to accomocate
that.
Cheers,
Bruce
