I'm having some problems using mkfs.  I'm using a Ultrastor 12F EDSI,
and a Siemmens 330M Megafile drive.  If I create a partition of size
more than 25000 blocks, I get a "HD: write_inir" error when using mkfs
/dev/hda2 xxxxx.  If I make the partition less than 25000 blocks, I
get no error using mkfs, but get 3-4 "HD:" errors durring installation,
and an unstable FS which crashes after 20-30 minutes of use.  At this     
point, I cannot use Linux with these errors, and would love to get this
problem licked.  I'm using a 386DX-25 w/4M, if that makes any difference.
Also, I've looked at all the FAQs I could find, so if anyone can help,
please do!!! Thanks in advance.
