<DIV><SPAN class=850323918-28102005><FONT face=Arial size=2>Has this been always
the case? Latest version of DISKsim 3.0 from the website, and after I get
it to compile, both on CYGWIN on windows and Redhat with 2.4.9 kernel I get some
significant differences. Are these differences known? Is there a
fix, either in runvalid or in the code?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
