[Cooker] hackkernel and hard disk optimization problem

2000-10-12 Thread pgeorges

Be careful while booting kernel 2.4 and using disk optimisations like

/sbin/hdparm -X66 -d1 -u1 -m16 -c3 /dev/hda

After some nice messages like 'DMA intr lost' and so on, it corrupted
badly my filesystem.

I think with alpha kernels, a good choice is to be really conservative.
