Hi, I hope you find this informative.
I recently bought an Abit BP6 and am trying to get my drives working with it at UDMA(33) speeds. I keep on getting these errors:
hdb: timeout waiting for DMA hdb: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hda: DMA disabled hdb: DMA disabled ide0: reset: success
whenever I try to write large amounts of data to /dev/hdb.
Here are some "interesting" clippings of boot sequences and other things.
(from dmesg) hda: ST36450A, 6149MB w/448kB Cache, CHS=784/255/63, DMA hdb: Maxtor 92048D8, 19531MB w/512kB Cache, CHS=39683/16/63, UDMA(33) hdc: IBM-DJAA-31700, 1628MB w/96kB Cache, CHS=3308/16/63, DMA hdd: ATAPI 24X CD-ROM drive, 128kB Cache, DMA
(from dmesg) Partition check: hda: hda1 hdb: hdb1 hdc:hdc: timeout waiting for DMA hdc: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdc: timeout waiting for DMA hdc: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdc: timeout waiting for DMA hdc: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdc: timeout waiting for DMA hdc: irq timeout: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest } hdc: DMA disabled hdd: DMA disabled ide1: reset: success [PTBL] [827/64/63] hdc1
(from hdparm -t /dev/hda) /dev/hda: Timing buffered disk reads: 32 MB in 3.73 seconds = 8.58 MB/sec
(from hdparm -t /dev/hdb) /dev/hdb: Timing buffered disk reads: 32 MB in 1.67 seconds =19.16 MB/sec
As you can tell, I bought /dev/hdb for SPEED :) It'd be nice to be able to capture video to it. Make It Go(tm) ? :)
