Hello everyone! I hope that you can help me a problem I have
with my laptop: since I bought it (one month ago), twice while the system
was in use the harddisk started to spin withouth any reason and the kernel
stopped writing in it, with the message "ide 0: busy" (or something
similar). The only fix was to power off. Do you think it is an hardware or
software problems? I am running Mandrake 7.2, with the default kernel (the
ide control should be, but I cannot bet on it, a PIIX4 by intel). Any
idea about possible ways for a better diagnosti than just waiting for the
problem to happen again?
Many thanks,
Biagio
