Hello Carsten,

afer building a new Kernel 2.4.16 and paching with ide.2.4.16.02152002.patch
Yast shows me correct number of cylinder and correct capacity.
But your disk_test reports an error:

linux:/vdr/disktest # ./disk_test /dev/hdg1
Writing.
156327 MB.
Write complete - Input/output error.
 163921575936 bytes in 5706.72 seconds = 27.3935 MB/s.
Reading.
156327 MB.
Read aborted - Input/output error.
163921571840 bytes in 5703.06 seconds = 27.4111 MB/s.
linux:/vdr/disktest #

What kind of problem is this, what can I do?

Thanks a lot for helping

Ralf
