Since I have been having the same problem ("Trouble recording on large hard
disk partition" 17-Nov-2003), I checked my Disk Poweroff setting. It was
set to "No". I tried recording and crashed -1222 after a few minutes, same
as usual.

(This time I saw it when it crashed. The red light stayed on about 15
seconds. I think the VU meters continued to work. I was able to turn on
the backlight with F2. Finally the Panic -1222 screen came on.)

So I restarted and changed Disk Poweroff to "Yes". Then I tried recording
again and it had no problem! I let it record for 14 hours, then finally I
pressed Off. Great!

So I am starting to suspect that maybe this Disk Poweroff setting has
something to do with the problem?
