I just got a new 80 gig drive for my nfs server but it seems to be
having trouble being recognized.  Anybody have any idea what these
messages mean.  Both of my machines refuse to boot with this drive.
I've even exchanged it for another 80 gig drive of a different brand but
it still has the same problem:

dma timer expiry dma_status_00x21   

googling around leads me to belive that I need to recompile the kernel.
Anybody having this problem?  btw the drive is IDE
