OK, I fixed my backup system and I feel a bit more relaxed now, so I did
a quick test. I borrowed the Sil 3512-based card again and ran it with
Knoppix and also with the SUSE 2.6.37 kernel. Neither of them indicated
any errors with the drive so I suppose that some change between 2.6.32
and 2.6.37 has already fixed whatever my problem was with that
controller. One less thing to worry about.

I haven't got around to doing any of the other things I mentioned yet :(

Cheers, Dave
