Is this reproducible?  Can you try booting with 'linux ide=nodma' and see if
that helps?

Comment 5 Jeremy Katz 2005-09-21 19:01:30 UTC
Since there are insufficient details provided in this report for us to
investigate the issue further, and we have not received the feedback we
requested, we will assume the problem was not reproduceable or has been fixed in
a later update for this product.  If you have further information, feel free to
add to the report and reopen.
