Check with hdparm wether DMA is is used. The output from 'hdparm /dev/hda' should contain a line: using_dma = 1 (on))
if not, switch it on with 'hdarm -d1 /dev/hda'.
I'll try it. But... I have another System running (32bit) on an ASRock Board with Athlon XP2600 and SIS-Chipset. The same Drive Errors occure on that system when I turn on DMA in combination with journaling file systems. I've tested it several times. jfs or ReiserFS with DMA on: Same Errors as above. ext2 with DMA on: No Errors. Seems to me that is not an exotic Problem and I am searching for a general workout to solve it. During this time I have not found any solution and I hope that this is *not* the same issue on the 64bit machine. By Siggi
