Why its not locking with UDMA2 - just with UDMA4 and concurently running
interrupts ??
Couldn't this be just some problem with timers ?
How can you be sure its all just hardware bug ?
Also when this lost interrupt is detected while my computer
is still running for next five seconds or so before it completele freezes?
I think there could be exist some software solution for this
(just like there are some software fixies for Pentium bugs).
But I do not have technical knowledge to reprogram ATA controler
(not mentioning I have no idea where the documentation for them
could be downloaded)
