Somewhat related I've a debian 2.0 kernel 2.0.36 with *no* SCSI disks, and i see the {DriveReady SeekComplete Error } also (but not the other one) i think i have also my kernel with Intel Triton support. and i have also some stranges memory/disk problems, the system with 64Mo crashing a lot of mine, and now with only 16Mo, not crashing but making strange things to disks (like when rebooting, it's stuck at LIL- which i repaired by booting with floppy and relaunching lilo, but it's strange isn't it ?) (if someones has a clue...it's a pentium MMX and i got same problemes with 2x32Mo EDO, 1x64Mo SDRAM, 2x32Mo SDRAM) i will try tomorrow to recompile the kernel without this support, and i'll see if it's better. I'll let you know. Thanks for the idea by the way... Patrick
