I had the same messages under slackware, and they were pretty much harmless. I never experienced problems with my system even though I had that message pop up during boot. I THINK (I could be wrong) that it had something to do with my settings for LBA for my hard disks, etc.

Question though, in the boot messages, I get: hdb: probing with STATUS instead of ALTSTATUS hdb: probing with STATUS instead of ALTSTATUS
Is this bad?? - what can I do to get rid of these messages?? <SNIP> Thanks for the reply - I'll look see if I've got settings still for a slave CDrom drive.
