More info on ftp crashes and UDMA hard drive



Well, in order to work around the ftp crashing problem, my friend and I
decided to set up NFS.  We got it working fine, and transfered a few
files, and then we got around to trying to optimize the rsize and wsize
mount parameters.  In doing this, I went into the NFS mounted directory
and did "time dd if=/dev/zero of=testfile bs=16k count=4096".  This caused
my friends computer to crash with this error:

Kernel panic: skput:over: 001a8e1c:494
In swapper task - not syncing

This reinforces my theory about the hard drive being the problem.  So,
does anyone know how to get a UDMA hard drive to work properly?

Thanks,
Eric.
