Title:
  Adaptec 2100S RAID (DPT I2O-based) controller poorly supported under
  x86_64 kernel

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “linux” source package in Hardy:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: kernel-image-2.6.24-18-generic-di

  This bug is concerning the support for the Adaptec 2100S RAID
  controller under Ubuntu 8.06 with the x86_64 kernel.  This controller
  is DPT I2O-based, so there are two possible Linux kernel drivers,
  i2o_block and dpt_i2o.  The dpt_i2o driver is not currently available
  with the x86_64 kernel, so this leaves the i2o_block driver.  When I
  use the i2o_block driver and copy a large amount of data (~20GB) from
  the RAID device (e.g., cp -rp /raid_partition /non_raid_partition), I
  encounter numerous I/O errors and eventually the cp hangs, stuck at
  100% CPU usage.  As a workaround, I was able to boot with the Ubuntu
  8.06 32-bit Live CD, use the dpt_i2o driver, and copy the files
  without errors.
