heres the output of /sbin/hdparm -i /dev/hda:

Model=ST310212A, FwRev=3.02, SerialNo=5EG266T9
 Config={ HardSect NotMFM HdSw>15uSec Fixed DTR>10Mbs RotSpdTol>.5% }
 RawCHS=16383/16/63, TrkSize=0, SectSize=0, ECCbytes=4
 BuffType=unknown, BuffSize=512kB, MaxMultSect=32, MultSect=off
 CurCHS=16383/16/63, CurSects=-66060037, LBA=yes, LBAsects=20005650
 IORDY=on/off, tPIO={min:240,w/IORDY:120}, tDMA={min:120,rec:120}
 PIO modes: pio0 pio1 pio2 pio3 pio4 
 DMA modes: mdma0 mdma1 mdma2 udma0 udma1 *udma2 udma3 udma4 

so far with dma turned off, i get no errors, but my mobo can handle
66,but that info it not really saying if my hdd can handle it, looking
at 'dmesg' it suggests a udma33, how would i tell hdparm to run at 33,
as the only optiop i can find is either off/on, or will it run it at the
designated hdd speed?

PIO modes;override with idebus=xx
