Whats up with sync ? this is what happens when i run hdparm -t /dev/hda
( i tested /dev/hda with testdisk tool, and everything seems fine)
# df -h

devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
Linux 2.6.14.3 with latest reiser4 patch.
I'm attaching strace from hdparm -t /dev/hda
