Just wondering if anyone has seen problems with sata_nv
driver on fedora 10?

I was downloading updates earlier, and my machine started
freezing up and windows started disappearing. Typing reboot
made it go into a 100% cpu state, so I eventually powered
off and back on and things have been OK since then.

Naturally I also suspect the disk may be failing, but it is
only a few months old, so I thought I'd ask if anyone else
has had suspicious disk problems since going to f10.

I found this gibberish in /var/log/message (no clue what it
might mean :-)

I'll certainly keep a watch for additional errors (and make sure my
nightly backups keep running OK :-).
