After successfully testing IDE DMA for a little while (reading rwd0,
fsck -n and bonnie -s 64 worked fine) I got the following messages
after the write stages for bonnie -s 64:
wd0: interrupt timeout:
wd0: status 50<rdy,seekdone> error 0
wd0: interrupt timeout:
wd0: status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 1<no_dam>
wd0: interrupt timeout:
wd0: status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 1<no_dam>
wd0: interrupt timeout:
wd0: status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 1<no_dam>
wd0: Last time I say: interrupt timeout. Probably a portable PC.:
wd0: status 58<rdy,seekdone,drq> error 1<no_dam>
The system then drifted South:
- no more interrupt timeouts, but wd seemed to get stuck in single
sector mode. ls on the bonnie output file was very slow, and
systat reported about 20 interrupts/sec, 10 "blks", and often
"***** msps" (division by 0?).
- long before the 13107 seconds required to read 128MB at 10K/sec,
the system hung (the keyboard LEDs didn't work).
- the test drive was dead after hard reset.
- the test drive was OK after cycling the power.
Boot-time log messages:
...

I tested before I noticed the error messages. DMA did work.
