I'm getting something similar. I thought it was my mainboard, as the one
I currently have has some other problems (doesn't take the Nvidia TNT
card)

During heavy disk i/o the system freezes up for about 10 seconds or so,
and then things continue. I'm getting these messages:

wd0: interrupt timeout (status 50<rdy,seekdone> error 1<no_dam>)
wd0: wdtimeout() DMA status 1<active>
wd0: interrupt timeout (status 50<rdy,seekdone> error 1<no_dam>)
wd0: wdtimeout() DMA status 1<active>
wd0: Last time I say: interrupt timeout.  Probably a portable PC.
(status 50<rdy,seekdone> error 1<no_dam>)
wd0: wdtimeout() DMA status 1<active>

This is what gets probed:
