Hi
Since SuSE 8.2, I have trouble with the IDE drivers. If the kernel tries to
reach the drives, I got a message:
kernel: hdd: packet command error: error =0x51 {Drive Ready SeekComplete
Error)
kernel:hdd: packet command error: error = 0x54
Sometimes I also get the same messages when I have quickly put together
a Linux machine with "written off" components. These components often
have been manufactured in different eras (for ex. old HD and newer
Motherboard). I think that it relates to timing problems. But I have
never lost data when I got these messages.
Install Windows. Then you will have a slow system without knowing why
;-) There may be millions of systems like this in the world ;-)
