I see that to. I was wondering what are these files. The thing seems to be mounting kernel error disapeared now as I remember. That may be the source of problem. I think it should error and reset kernel IDE driver to use non-DMA mode. (So no need for my patch in a sense. This relied on kernel error and remount.) By the way, for boot-loader kernel, do we care about performance gain of DMA? If not disable them all together for stability. Or should we have sleep inserted after mount/umount to stabilize system?
