I changed it to one of the proper SATA connectors comming off the power supply and it doesn't do that anymore. Sorry for the false alarm, There is one thing that seems odd, if you do have an nForce4 chipset, the kernel should be running the SATA controller in ADMA mode in 2.6.20, but it doesn't seem like it is from your dmesg output. Can you post the output of "lspci -vvn"? Also what kind of motherboard is that? -- Robert Hancock Saskatoon, SK, Canada To email, remove "nospam" from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home Page: http://www.roberthancock.com/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
