OK, if this is a timeout, then you would need to find why this timeout happens.
There are two probabilities:
1) A cabling problem
2) This is PATA and you have a hard disk at the same cable.
In case of 1), check or replace the cables, make sure that the OS is set up for
UDMA to the drive (this requires a 80 wire cable - unfortunately the drive
manufacturers deliver only 40 wire cable).
In case of 2) use the -immed option.
