I confirm this annoying bug on a PC with Intel Core 2 1.86 processor,
Nvidia graphics card, SATA hard drive and LG DVD (I had a Pioneer DVD
before and the bug was there already). The PC has dual boot with Windows
XP. It worked well on a clean Intrepid Ibex installation a year ago but
as soon as the first kernel updates came it stopped booting and began
displaying "SRST failed...."  I upgraded to Jaunty as it came out and
now to Karmic with no success. I have tried switching cables and jumpers
as suggested here, with no luck. It is not hardware or Bios problem,
however, because XP starts smoothly. During one year we also have tried
to install repeatedly other distros on this PC, but live CDs won't even
recognize the hard drive. So only XP works on this PC which is sad.
