make sure you have the same speed disks on the same ide cable
- best to use only one ide drive per cable
- do NOT mix ata-33 w/ ata-66 w/ ata-100 w/ ata-133 on the same
cable
use better and SHORTER ide cables ?? ( should be 80 conductor )
make sure you do NOT have kinks in the ide cable ( keep it straight )
make sure your kernel has the ide chipset support enabled for your
motherboard
-- otherwise... you have a failing or dead disk drive...
-- if its an ibm deskstar... get rid of it...
