A search through dejanews reveals a lively discussion on various mailing lists on this bug. Quick summary: -- It appears to be related to having a seagate drive; possibly it's simple using a UDA66 drive on a UDA33 controller. -- Reactions have ranged from "your drives about to die" to "linux deals with those; don't worry about it". -- Fixes suggested have ranged from "Recheck your cables" to "load the new driver" to "adjust your BIOS specs by hand". Unfortunately, the most authoritative answer seems to be to adjust BIOS specs, and details weren't given on how to do this. Assigned to dledford I resolved this problem by disabling UDMA in the system BIOS in three different systems - Each with different BIOS's - That is why there are no details on how to do this in the news groups. If that didnt work for you re-open this one. |
