>Description:
This system has a highpoint 2300 RAID controller in it. The drivers previous to 6.3-R were available from highpoint as a .ko but in 6.3-R they are available in the kernel as the hptrr driver. Unfortunately trying to use the hptrr driver results in filesystem corruption and eventual panics. I unfortunately didn't save a panic message, but I do have a crash dump I can make available, and a kernel with the hptrr driver if someone is interested in troubleshooting this.
>How-To-Repeat:
Use device hptrr instead of the highpoint supplied .ko for the 2300 RocketRaid and enjoy hourly panics.
>Fix:
The workaround at this point is to use the highpoint supplied ko
