I just tried copying my partitions one at a time with DMA support turned on and there were no DMA errors reported. You may recall that when I copied the entire drive at once (dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/hdb bs=1k) with DMA turned on I got DMA and CRC errors in both Debian and Red Hat. So I wonder if this may have been caused by copying my active swap partition? Is there any way to turn off use of the swap portion during my dd backup process? -Dex
