[Bug 177059] st driver can't read large blocks
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=177059 hare@novell.com changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|ASSIGNED |NEEDINFO Info Provider| |novell@skewray.com ------- Comment #3 from hare@novell.com 2006-10-04 01:24 MST ------- Actually, this looks more like a driver issue. Each driver has a 'max_sectors' setting, which controls the number of sectors (ie 512 byte-block) can be transferred in one SCSI command. This is (normally) set to 1024, ie the driver is allowed to transfer up to 512kB in one command. When setting the blocksize to something larger than this the driver will bail out. Which driver are you using? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
