1 I am running an ITE IT8212 IDE Raid controller card with a 60GB and a 40GB
2 drive in a striping array. I have about 60GB of data on the thing and it
3 only lets me copy off perhaps a gig at a time before I get a mysterious "I/O
4 Error" that requires that I reboot to reset the raid card (it doesn't crash
5 Linux but the raid is inaccessible until a reboot is completed). Anyone
6 heard of such a thing? I am totally lost here. At the very least is there a
7 way to reset the blasted card without rebooting the machine? It is also
8 worthy of noting that my motherboard has two onboard ITE SATA raid
9 controllers built in. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
