I would guess since you ran up2date, you updated kernel rpm as well? Maybe to 2.4.18-X?
I saw this same thing, when I installed 8.0 yesterday, except with hdc (first cdrom) both my hard disks were fine. I hadn't seen this in 6.2 or 7.3 running same hardware, so I suspected some sort of change on the install.
I upgraded to 2.4.20 (not because of this, because I wanted to), and using essentially same config; problem immediately went away, any chance that kernel-2.4.18.X might have a problem from RH?

Subject: Hard disk problems
Managed to install redhat 7.1 and up2date it on two computers this weekend after struggling with a few issues and thanks to the help I received here finished without problems. The machines are running great.
I've installed 7.1 on a third machine last night. However, I'm running into a problem.
This shows up after I've logged in.
hda: timeout waiting for DMA ide_dmaproc: chipset supported ide_dma_timeout func only: 14 hda: irq timeout: status=0x58 {Drive Ready SeekComplete DataRequest} hda: DMA disabled hda: Drive not ready for command.
Does this mean the hard drive is bad? Or is something else going on? I can't run fsck because no prompt is available. I tried re-installing with a check for bad blocks. It took a little longer but the install occurred. I was able to log on again, but started receiving this above message again.
Any advice?
