Hi,  I am having some interesting problems occuring on one of my
linux machines.  I was hoping someone out there has seen this problem
before.  I have search the redhat archives with no success.  So here it
goes :-)

after an appearant successful boot up I get the following series of
messages on my screen after the login prompt.


hda: status timeout: status=0x80 {Busy}
hda: drive not ready for command
ide0: reset: sucess

of course I get a lot of disk trashing to go along with this. boot up
sometimes fails with messages like Error 0x01  or Error 0x02.  Sometimes
the boot up is successful other times I get messagess like

Kernal Panic Ext2-fs panic (dev 03:04) .  or  more recently  a
successful boot with the following
lines before the prompt.

hda: read_intr: status =0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest error
}
hda: read_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }

This is particularly frustrating because I have just successfully set up
networking between this machine and my other linux host.   And I have to
get some work done on ssh and samba for my job. Any help would be
appreciated.

Addtiional information, the system is a AMD system card and a Pentium P5
chip, running redhat v4.1.
the Bios has PnP configured but I have disabled the pnp settings on my
network card.  I have absolutely no idea as to how to proceed on
troubleshooting this problem.
