I can confirm this bug. I have two identical servers: AMD X2 3800+ 4 GB RAM Areca ARC-1220 8 port SATA RAID controller 5 500 GB drives in RAID 5
Both servers have a 1.9 TB partition using LVM + XFS. Server #1 is running dapper, 2.6.15-23-amd64-server. Server #2 is running edgy, 2.6.17-10-server (x86_64). Copying a 1.3 GB file from the system drive (an ide drive) to the RAID will always result in silent corruption on edgy. I copied the file 20 times under a variety of system and disk load. The md5sum was different every single time! Dapper does not have this problem. I will reboot into 2.6.17-11-server and do some more testing and then upgrade to feisty to see if this problem still exists. -- Areca RAID + Intel Core2Duo + XFS = corrupted files https://launchpad.net/bugs/88705 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
