smartd crashing recent 2.6.32 kernel

maybe someone has a clue....!?

see https://bugzillafiles.novell.org/attachment.cgi?id=338427

that box seems to crash in megaraid_mbox driver as soon as smartd is starting - even with recent 2.6.32 kernel.

as this box will go into production between mid/end of february, i think that is not much time if there is something to fix (and then being tested/confirmed to be fixed)

regards
roland

Roland,
Running 'smartd -r ioctl,1' from the command line might help us find which command it didn't like. That will send information to the log. If the crash truncates the log then add '-d' to the above invocation to dump debug information to the console. Information about the disks would be useful as well.

Does the megaraid controller have the latest firmware from LSI?
