Here is my setup: i have two ide harddisk on a promise ide control card (PDC20262) and here is my /etc/raidtab file raiddev /dev/md0 raid-level 1 chunk-size 64k persistent-superblock 1 nr-raid-disks 2 device /dev/hdd1 raid-disk 0 device /dev/hdb1 raid-disk 1 the file system is XFS. everything works most of time except from time to time, files seem to get corrupted. I test the integrity by running rpm --checks *.rpm continuously to verify the signature of the file. the corrupted files seem to 'recover' itself if i leave the machine alone for a while or umount and mount back the filesystem. does anyone have this type of temperory file corruption problem? I tested it against 2.4.2x kernel including the last vanilla 2.4.22 + xfs patches, they all seem to have the same problem Thanks, -Ying
