    That's intresting. I had no problem at all.

    hda and hdc are using udma33 here. hdb contains the swap, and
    gets this error on boot:

    hdb: Conner Peripherals 340MB - CP30344, ATA DISK drive
    hdb: set_drive_speed_status: status=0x51 { DriveReady
    SeekComplete Error }
    hdb: set_drive_speed_status: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
    ide0: Drive 1 didn't accept speed setting. Oh, well.
    [...]
    [same error message]
    hdb: 670320 sectors (343 MB) w/64KiB Cache, CHS=665/16/63, DMA

    hdparm -iv /dev/hdb output:

    Hope this helps.
