Ughh!  Spoke too soon.  :-(

The older PIII machine still crashes in the same manner.  This is what
I have  configured:

  $ cat /usr/src/linux/.config | grep -i CONFIG_ATA
# CONFIG_ATALK is not set
# CONFIG_ATA_OVER_ETH is not set
CONFIG_ATA=y
# CONFIG_ATA_NONSTANDARD is not set
# CONFIG_ATA_VERBOSE_ERROR is not set
CONFIG_ATA_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ATA_SFF=y
CONFIG_ATA_BMDMA=y
CONFIG_ATA_PIIX=y
CONFIG_ATA_GENERIC=y

Also,

CONFIG_SATA_PMP=y

CONFIG_PATA_ISAPNP=y

CONFIG_PATA_ACPI=y
CONFIG_PATA_LEGACY=y

This is what this old machine contains:

# lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82830 830 Chipset Host Bridge (rev
04)
00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82830 830 Chipset AGP Bridge (rev
04)
...
00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev 42)
00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801CAM ISA Bridge (LPC) (rev 02)
00:1f.1 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801CAM IDE U100 Controller (rev
02)

I should be able to get onto the P4 later on and see if the problem
persists there too.

I'm not sure if this would help but it couldn't hurt to try.

Hope that helps.
Thanks Dale, I think it is based on older kernels.  It mentions:

ata_piix

which is the ONFIG_ATA_PIIX=y I have configured in the kernel.  For a
minute I thought it's something simple I missed out on with the change
of the kernel version, but it seems it is more involved than that.  I
just hope that the P4 machine works out right, because it is on daily
use.

It tells in the top right corner what kernels it is based on. It mentions 2.6.36.1, 2.6.37-rc3-git5 in the little box. Also, I just noticed that it lists the mobo and branded PCs on the left. Maybe that will help some. I just found mine that I been asking about on this list. I never noticed that before today. o_O I guess I was looking in the wrong place the past few days. Now to remember that it is there. ;-)
