Hi,

Just got a thinkpad x40 on ebay, and I had some problems with it.

Any "real work" (building/untarring) was causing soft errors:

wd0(pciide0:0:0): timeout
        type: ata
        c_bcount: 16384
        c_skip: 0

wd0: soft error (corrected)

(and the wonderful iwi bug exposed too, but thats another story)

I then disabled dma altogether (flags 0xfcc), and did a byte for byte
read on the disk using dd overnight.

When I returned, dd had exited with "io error" and dmesh shows:
wd0c: aborted command reading fsbn 20053919 (wd0 bn 20053919; cn 1326
tn 76 sn 11), retrying

Bad hardware?
