The "brkadrint" is a bug.  The messages above it should be enough
to find the problem.

The grand prixs are very touchy little drives.  We had three die with
similar behavior patterns to what you describe here.  Although it 
may be a driver problem, it sounds like the drive just didn't like it
when you accessed a particular sector.

The overlapped commands errors should not occur with the -current driver.
You should be using that.
