Hi Edwin,

Since you didn't attach the dmesg I can't trouble what had happen. May be you can try the follow kernel parameter and tell us the result

all_generic_ide
libata.dma=0

Regards,
Punky

I'm trying to turn off DMA for 0.6 on a WRAP board with

kernel /vmlinuz root=LABEL=ROOT_FS  console=ttyS0,38400n8 ide=nodma

but the errors (and lengthy boot time) still persist.

Am I missing something?

Edwin
