Re: AMD Athlon + VIA Crashing On Disk I/O

Hi Josh,

I think I have an answer why the crash but I need to verify with a client
as we are seeing the same problem on various VIA boards.  The good new is
we found on board that does not do this nasty.  So we are doing a
component wide comparisong of settings.

It is a really cool and smart embedded server found at
