Almost >the same rpoblem as yours. > >-- iani I have noticed the same thing here in two situations: 1. IBM DTTA-351010 UDMA 2 10.1GB IDE drive on primary master, SONY CDU-55E PIO 0 2x IDE CDROM on secondary master. 2. Western Digital AC2420F PIO 3 420MB IDE drive on primary master, Seagate ST31276A PIO 4 1.2GB IDE drive on primary slave, assorted CD-ROMS on secondary channel. System 1 is an Intel TX chipset, 2 is some SiS Aladdin thingamajig. Removing the SONY from system 1, or even disabling the second IDE channel fixes the problem. In system 2 i *think* the problem disappeared if I replaced the WD AC2420F with an IBM 540MB PIO 2 drive, but I am not completely sure on that because the SONY CD was on secondary in that system for a time, and that could have been what was causing it. If anybody is interested I can give more detailed info or do some testing. I know this problem is in both 2.2.5-PREREL and 3.2-STABLE from about a week ago.
