well, i dont have a floppy drive, so that test is a little difficult to
do, but i threw some ram in there that i have used in linux before, and
i still had the slew of ide error messages. and this harddrive has
worked in linux before. i'm getting more and more convinced its an ide
controller +linux issue.
plus, i just discovered this:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0109.1/0198.html
which really points to ide controller and linux not fighting nicely
together, altho the thread doesnt really point towards a solution.
