Thought I would mention a little glitch I just ran into.

I have been concerned with the heat in my case for a while, so last time I 
had it open I did some rearraging. Having seen a few articles online about 
'rounding' you ide cable I did a less extreme version. I folded my ribbons 
and taped them up. This opened a lot of room in the case and I'm sure help 
air flow. 

However when I tried to boot off of a linux CD, it would boot, but init 
would fail to run, spewing DMA errors. This was only a few disks, 
mandrake's cds didn't have a problem. Incredulousy I unboung the ribbons 
and everthing was fine.

This was suprising to me, although some might tell me I'm stupid.
