Hmmm. I'm no DMA / IDE expert, but if this message appears with DMA
off, yet seems to work with it on, my hunch is that there is an IDE
driver bug which gets hidden with DMA on. I would want to see
error-message-free operation with DMA off before re-engaging it.

That's what I would to, too.
Good Luck
