Hello I once had the error mentioned in the subject line with an IBM DAQA4030 4GB drive (which smoked up some month ago...)
I fixed it by suplying something similar to the following options "ide0=noautotune" to my /etc/lilo.conf. Then it was quiet. Hope it helps. bye, -christian- -- Linux - the choice of the GNU generation.
