After upgrading my NetBSD-1.0 box to Current (Oct 1), I began having
severe problems with my FFS filesystems. Basically any moderately
heavy disk activity (read/write) caused random, unprovoked,
filesystem corruption. After fighting with the damn box for 3 days,
the corruption became so severe that I lost the root, usr, and
usr/src filesystems forcing me to regress back to my 1.0 setup.
The box is as follows:
i486DX/2 66Mhz
16MB RAM
ISA Bus
integrated AIC6360 SCSI (Yes, it HAS a bios)
IRQ 10
2 DEC RZ26L 1GB SCSI-2 Drives
Apparently the AIC6360 Code, FFS, and/or the Kernel's SCSI interface
is SEVERELY broken. It would be a shame if 1.1 release had these
problems. Assistance in this matter would be appreciated. I
can provide kernel config and disklabels on request
