Subject: Re: 2.4.26: IDE drives become unavailable randomly
Date: Wed, 30 Jun 2004 16:18:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <40E2E7EF.15243.10093E4E@localhost> (raw)

I was getting this problem, and advice from smartmontools people was 
to clean out the box and reseat all cables etc.  Seemed to work for 
me on the box at work with this DMA timeout issue - BTW, always 
happened at idle, like 2:15am in the middle of the night etc.
