Hello,

Under 2.1.119, I got the message "hdd: misaligned DMA buffer" while
I'm just cp'ing files from my hard drive to a md0 drive. since the
error is originated from hdd, which is my boot partition, I assume
it's got to do with my harddrive (6.4G, DMA/33 running on embedded
EIDE controller, MAXTOR).

Would anyone kindly explain what this mean?

Thanks,

Sang Kang
