hello all,
on my asus notebook tm620 there is a crash with 2.6.22 and 2.6.21

....
Using IPI Shortcut mode

I attached two files with the kernel bootmessage

1. bug.txt.gz
kernel 2.6.22.1 created with netconsole, last lines were missing i added them by hand

2. out.txt.gz
simple a dmesg from kernel 2.6.18, works fine


additional observations:
removing 'resume=/dev/hda1' from grub lets the crash disappear but the drive still does not work because
ata_id[772]: main: HDIO_GET_IDENTITY failed for '/dev/.tmp-3-0'

there is a bug in the hd detection code:
2.6.22.1
hda: 8032MB, CHS=1024/255/63
hda: hda1 hda2 hda3
hda: p2 exceeds device capacity
hda: p3 exceeds device capacity

2.6.18
hda: 39070080 sectors (20003 MB), CHS=38760/16/63, UDMA(100)
hda: cache flushes supported
hda: hda1 hda2 hda3
Probing IDE interface ide1...


here the output from fdisk:

fdisk -l

Disk /dev/hda: 20.0 GB, 20003880960 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2432 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

/dev/hda2 * 132 1437 10490445 83 Linux
/dev/hda3 1438 2432 7992337+ 83 Linux



is it possible that this leads to a chain of events causing the crash in ll_rw_blk.c ?

if someone is interested in the .config please mail me directly, i have not subscribed the lkml.
