Just curious! Has anyone been able to get the alt-sysrq debug keys to
work while this is happening? If so can they post that info as well as
the symbols for that kernel. I am not the best programmer or kernel
hacker in the world, but I wouldn't mind giving it a shot. It sounds
like you have something similar to:

while(!somecommand) /* loop until it reads/writes correctly */
{
...
}

Then again any fool can probably say the same. Sound accurate to you
Alan?
