Hello,
Hey, I've seen the same kind of effect: On a 430FX with two (regular EIDE-DMA) 4.3GB quantum bigfoots, each on a separate controller cable (hda & hdc).
When the system boots, the DMA for one of them (hdc) gets switched off after an IDE interface reset and pause... (kernel 2.0.33 on RH5).
Maybe it's a gneric problem with the DMA code in the linux kernels? A buffer problem or something?
Jelle.
