Hi,
I still have big trouble with my Dell Poweredge 1650 and an Adaptec 29160 with an external Hardware 1 TB Raid-box. The linus distri is Fedora Core R2.
If I try to copy files to or from the raid local or via smb, scp or nfs the copyprocess stopps for some seconds with a lot of errors in the logs.
I checked all cabels and terminators also the scsi-bios-settings of the controller.
I tried different kernels from 2.6.5 (original FC2) to 2.6.7-development single cpu and smp - the problemm is still the same.
Amy ideas??
I cann post the complete error log if this would be of use...

I don't remember if 29160 supports 320MB/s, but if it does, and you're trying to go at it, downshift the card to 160MB/s. I had problems in FC 1 running a 29320 @ 320MB/s, and had to downshift to 160MB/s. Otherwise @320MB/s the kernel was falling over with errors.
Do you have an nVidia graphics card in that machine? I've noticed that one of either the nVidia binary-only drivers or the 8k-stack kernels from Linuxant seem to stomp on the interrupts from my 29160 card. Who'd have thought?
I get numerous spurious 29160 interrupts every day, but only with the closed-source nVidia drivers installed. Since the Linuxant kernels are purportedly only the stock kernels with the 4k-stack and the register-parm-passing patches backed out to restore driver compatibility, it seems unlikely that the problem is due to the Linuxant kernel. This was also a problem under FC1. Note that this does not happen with the stock FC2 kernels using the standard open-source nv drivers.
Is this possibly the error that you're seeing?
If so, hopefully the new nVidia drivers will fix this bug when they eventually come out...
