System: NetBSD tellus.netbsd.se 4.0_BETA NetBSD 4.0_BETA (GENERIC.MP) #0: Tue Oct 3 18:36:54 UTC 2006 builds@b3.netbsd.org:/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4/i386/200610010000Z-obj/home/builds/ab/netbsd-4/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC.MP i386
Architecture: i386
Machine: i386
>Description:
 	The machine is a Dell poweredge 1800 with a CERC 1.5/6ch raidcard. The kernel finds the card and all containers but when we are trying to 
	write to the volume it performce very good for about 10 second then (in this case dd) becomes a zombie process and the only thing that will 
	unlock the volume is a reboot.

	aac0 at pci3 dev 9 function 0: Dell CERC SATA RAID 1.5/6ch
	aac0: interrupting at ioapic2 pin 0 (irq 11)
	aac0: i80303 at 100MHz, 64MB mem (48MB cache), optional battery not installed
	aac0: Kernel 4.1-0 [Build 7417], Monitor 4.1-0 [Build 7417], S/N  2d2e5

	ld0: 467 GB, 61022 cyl, 255 head, 63 sec, 512 bytes/sect x 980334080 sectors

	Same problem with 3.0.1, the amd64 port complains about some init of a structure (seems to be a pr about that already)

>How-To-Repeat:
	Try to write something to a mounted volume.

 Hmm...  I see nothing like that.  I'm running RAID 1 at the moment,
 though, not RAID 10 (also on a PowerEdge 1800):

 I've got aac(4) work on my plate, so I'll take this PR.
