Hi,

I have done another tests and following seems to be obvious:

- on SD card after two days get one of the two pdflush processes
blocked (D status) by get_request_wait. Our application (miniTele) is
blocked as well.

The worst is that the only way out of this is hardware reset (power
off) because any attempt of reboot get also locked. (The SD card is
JFS formated and mounted now as /mnt/sd. I boot from on-board flash
the latest sw edition).


- when started from usb flash it runs without problem (now more then
one week). The only difference to SD card is the file system. The JFS
which is on the SD card was on the USB extremly slow. So I switched to
plain ext2 (which I would like to avoid in production version). 

However I think the error is not connected to particular file system I
 will run the test once more with ext2 on SD card.


Any suggestions highly appreciated
Jiri
