I have 2 identical (same model, anyway) 20GB ide drives: one is the hda in a Suse 10.2 box and the other has XP on it in this box (hdb here). The first one has had XP. Suse 9.1 and FC-6 on it at different times. The second one has XP on it in this 10.2 box and has been installed since soon after I loaded Suse 9.1 way back when. Got the picture?Now, as soon as Suse 10.2 was installed, both drives give the same messages during boot: (2 different puters, same distro, same messages) Probing IDE interface ide0... hdb: ST320413A, ATA DISK drive hdb: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } hdb: dma_intr: error=0x10 { SectorIdNotFound }, LBAsect=39876480, sector=39876480 ide: failed opcode was: unknown and: hdb: task_in_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest Error } hdb: task_in_intr: error=0x10 { SectorIdNotFound }, LBAsect=39941759, sector=39876480 ide: failed opcode was: unknown If I boot to the Suse 9.1 drive in this box I don't see that error. Also, if I boot to hdb, XP works fine. So, I ask: what in Suse 10.2 is causing the messages? Fred
Fred, Boot to SuSE 9.1 and report the number of sectors your drives have. The numbers above seem very close to if not past the end of the drive. ie. use hdparm or cat /proc/..... to get the number of sectors. I don't have a 9.1 system running so I can't remember the exact command to do it.
