Hallo,

I get these warnings/errors from my kernel. For my feeling it does
not really seem to slow down things a lot but maybe it helps for fixing
errors.

Feb 1 10:16:48 prester kernel: hda: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady Seek
Feb 1 10:16:48 prester kernel: hda: drive not ready for command
Feb 1 10:16:48 prester kernel: task_out_intr: should not trigger
Feb 1 10:16:48 prester kernel: task_out_intr: should not trigger

and

Feb 1 15:13:55 prester kernel: hda: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
Feb 1 15:13:55 prester kernel: hda: drive not ready for command
Feb 1 15:13:55 prester kernel: ide0: reset: success

Just now I have experience some new errors, which do not directly seem to be
related to ide but seem strange to me as well. Hope it gives you some clue.
