Hello, I've been having A persistant problem that is reproducable in linux |
| 5 |
systems and windows systems in vmware workstation 4 and 3.2.1. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
The problem occurs when a number of writes are attempted on the scsi disk (the |
| 8 |
vmware virtual hard disk). |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
After many failures with a windows install, I tried it with the gentoo |
| 11 |
live-cd, I found i could partion sda, however when I attempted a dd |
| 12 |
if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sda, In both vmware 3.2.1 and vmware 4 I get the |
| 13 |
following entries in the log file: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
<backtrace after signal 7> |

I'm wondering if there is anything in particular a given gentoo installation |
| 36 |
needs (using the gentoo-sources kernel) that could cause this? Or is it |
| 37 |
simply a bug that is destin for bugs.gentoo.org? |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Thanks |
