Had a client that has been battling problems and it looks like it might be
the the kernel module being buggy - no problem on Windows. It's a 2 port
SATA RAID controller and so far it looks like a) either it didn't like the
large partition or b) the read-ahead caching or c) the write-back caching.

Setup was 2 drives in RAID-1 configuration on Red Hat 9 system. 

Somebody else put the drives in, be buggered if I can get the info on them
from the command line.. seems like I should be using aaccli but I can't
figure out the device string to put. If I try most things (eg "open shit")
it reports device not of the correct type, but "open aac0" reports that
it's missing. Tried loads of other combinations like "0:0:0" "aac0:0:0" 
"aac0:1:0"

Bugger it... I'm going home. It's stable enough today, we'd just like to 
know "why?".
