I am using the Western Digital WD450AA 45GB hard drive on my linux system
without any problem now;  however, I would like to add that initially I had
a hell of time trying to setup this hard drive even to install Windows2000
on my FIC PA-2013 Mobo.  On a linux system, all I did was to use the utility
disk came with the drive to make the drive to an ultra DMA33.  Or, even
better if you can put the drive in your Linux system and use the hdparam (or
hdparm) to disable the Ultra DMA or make it a PIO.

I believe people on the net would like to hear your sucessfull story once
you get your drive up running with Linux OS.  Good luck.

Get a cable modem connection and it is a T-1 (1.5Mbps) downlink with a
384Kbps uplink.  I have mine setup in no time with a LinkSys BEFSR41
EtherFast Cable/DSL router.  Now, I have my Linux and Window2000 on the net
and am able to download a RedHat-7.0 CD in 57minutes.

That is almost the same as Bellsouth, 1.5M/256K.

Subject: EthernetExpress adapter problem on Mandrake 7.2
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2000 17:11:55 GMT
Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi everyone:

I am trying to resolve a rather nasty bug/problem with my Intel
Ethernet Express 10/100 network card on Linux Mandrake 7.2: I have
tried using the eepro100 driver that ships with mdk7.2 (v1.09j-t
9/29/99 Donald Becker, Revision: 1.20.2.10, 2000/05/31 modified by
Andrey V. Savochkin et al), and the newest version of the eepro100
driver by Becker (v1.11 7/19/2000 Donald Becker).

I seem to get through the module setup fine, and the driver/network
connection performs nicely most of the time. But if I try to download
big files (I have a ~450M test file) or try to squeeze a lot through
my network card I reliably, sooner or later (with my 400M file I
managed to transfer anywhere between 150 and 390M), get a complete
system lockup which once completely trashed my harddrive. I tried the
eepro100 drivers mentioned above, and I experience the same lockup
problems with both of them.

I have appended
  - listing of system specs
  - eepro100-diag output
  - excerpts from /var/log/messages (including mostly eth0 complaints)
  - dmesg output
below. Forgive the lengthy output, but I hope you can glean some
useful information from it. If anyone has any recommendations on how
to solve this problem, please let me know about it.

Your help is greatly appreciated - thanks -

I once had a very similar problem with a Windoze PC. It was bios' APM
feature that killed it. I simply had to turn APM off in the bios and the PC
stopped falling in irreversible coma after a few minutes of idleness. Try
it. I hope it helps.
