           Summary: Data Corruption on AMD64 SATA System with Breezy Badger
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: amd64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: kernel-package

Dear all,

writing data on SATA harddisk (Silicon Image 3512A Onboard-RAID) under Breezy
Badger (kernel version 2.6.12-7-amd64-k8, libata version 1.11 loaded; sata_sil
version 0.9) cause sometimes errors in md5sum check espeacially when large files
are copied or moved. 

The same problem occurs under Fedora Core 4 or SuSE 9.3 with different kernel
versions. 

Memory and harddisk have been checked without any evidence.

With Hoary Hedgehog kernel 2.6.10-5-amd64-k8 everything work fine (libata
version 1.10 loaded; sata_sil version 0.8). Some x86 kernels (e.g. Knoppix) also
works without problems as well as Debian Sarge AMD64 (not really suprising,
isn't it?).

The modules loaded in Breezy seem not to differ relevantly from Hoary except of
some versions (of cause).

I guess I have tried nearly everything to figure out where the problem is
located - so I may give any additional information on request.

So maybe anybody out there has any idea and find help before I go mad.

Greetings.
