You system did something funny or the new VIA code did it.
But because you observed this pattern the new feature that on Linux has
kicked in and hopefull recovered the system for you.

Sorry but you are not right in this world ...
Where in you manual does is "QUOTE" you can drive the ATA/IDE

Me too. But I couldn't get UDMA 66 after changing my BIOS
settings and booting. With 33 it's very stable (what I used
with 2.4.0). A diff:
-hda: 30015216 sectors (15368 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=1868/255/63, UDMA(33)
+hda: 30015216 sectors (15368 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=1868/255/63, UDMA(66)

Woohoo! Just found out that ATA66 on the VIA aint too great.
I set the kernel boot options idebus=66 ide0=ata66 enabling ATA66
according to dmesg. The HDD is a WDC UDMA100 30.5GB drive. I retried the
