Hi,

I just got an external e-SATA hard disk, and I'm testing for backup.

When I tried to "tar" 90GB to it, it caused a HSM violation, and since 
this
is the root file system, system is brain-dead. "Bus error" for every 
command
issued!


Error is (typed as was captured in the screen) ...

Running on SSD on Linux 2.6.35-rc3.

This does not happen all the time, but I've seen this if it's copying
intensively.

Thanks,
Jeff.
