Yes, I'm booting from install CD.

But Red Hat 9 still works fine on that hardware. What can be wrong?

Yes, I can:
ad0: 238457 MB <WDC WD2500JB-00GVC0 08.02D08> at ata0-master UDMA
acd0 ..... at ata0-slave looks fine too (I'm too lazy to copy it :)
Also I have ad2 and it seems fine on dmesg too.
After that goes

ad0: WARNING - READ_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=0
ad0: WARNING - READ_DMA UDMA ICRC error (retrying request) LBA=0
ad0: FAILURE - READ_DMA status=51<READY,DSC,ERROR>

and repeats 3 times.
