I experienced data corruption which was traced to an error in the scsi
layer, this may or may not be relevant to this problem.

The fix was:

--- linux/drivers/scsi/sd.c.orig Sat Feb 6 21:46:21 1999
+++ linux/drivers/scsi/sd.c Mon May 10 21:46:36 1999
@@ -1037,6 +1037,7 @@

SCpnt->transfersize = rscsi_disks[dev].sector_size;
SCpnt->underflow = this_count << 9;
+ SCpnt->cmd_len = 0;
scsi_do_cmd (SCpnt, (void *) cmd, buff,
this_count * rscsi_disks[dev].sector_size,
rw_intr,

Worth a try?
