Good point. Time to crack open hdparm maybe? Although dmesg did say the drive was using UDMA/33 but I'm not sure if that means Linux is actually using DMA for the drive or if thats just what the BIOS has it set at. I'd maybe check IDE cables as well btw. I had a bad IDE cable once cause some fun problems with a hard disk. -- djn I do not represent anyone else in emails I send to this list. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
