USB hard disk problem on RH9

[Dan Litty]

I have a Maxtor 3000LE USB hard disk that I'm trying to use on a Redhat 
9 system.  I created a partition on the disk using fdisk, then tried to 
make a new file system with mke2fs - and it runs for a while, then 
eventually hoses up the machine enough that it stops responding to 
everything except ping, and I have to reboot the box. 

I've tried several different parameters on mkfs, etc, to get it to work 
- all failed.

When I take this drive and move it over to an older (RH 7.1) system, it 
works fine.

Any ideas or experience anyone can share would be great.

Thanks.
