Hi,
This looks like your drive does not support DMA access.
Check if it is enable with the following (as root)
hdparm /dev/hda
it should report an output looking like this:
/dev/hda:
multcount = 16 (on)
IO_support = 3 (32-bit w/sync)
unmaskirq = 0 (off)
using_dma = 1 (on)
keepsettings = 0 (off)
readonly = 0 (off)
readahead = 8 (on)
geometry = 9726/255/63, sectors = 156250000, start = 0
If DMA is on, try this
hdparm -d 0 /dev/hda
