Megasas error messages

[Robert Goley]

I am getting waiting for command to finish messages on the console.  It is 
repeating the line every 5 seconds and increments the waiting time by 5 
seconds each time it prints.  The machine is basically frozen or paused 
waiting on some message from the RAID controller.  The machine is a 2970 with 
the PERD 5 integrated raid controller.  There are 4 15,000 RPM 2.5 inch disks 
in a RAID 5 array.  There is another similar 2970 in the field that has 
displayed similar messages before.  It is running Debian 4.0 (Etch) 64 bit 
with the default 2.6.18 kernel.  Is anyone else experiencing similar errors 
with the 2970 servers?
