[linux-lvm] LVM corruption on rocketraid 1540 in AMD64 CentOS

[Christopher Hicks]

I've got a pair of RocketRaid 1540's based on the HPT374 chip.  Every time 
I setup an LVM which includes drives on the RR1540 and reboot, the LVM 
becomes corrupt.  I'm able before reboot to read and write files to my 
heart's content, but then I reboot and its toast.  I was able to reboot 
fine with LVM partitions on the same box as long as none of the PV's were 
on the HPT374.  My experiments where on an AMD64 machine running CentOS 
4 and I'm not sure what to try next.  I figured trying FC4 on x86 32-bit 
hardware should be the next step to see if its an architecture issue.  Is 
this a known issue?  Any suggestions for why?  Or any suggestions for what 
to try?  I'd really like to get these controllers back in the server 
they belong in.  :)
