Good advice, but the problem persists even when the offending drive is
alone on the secondary ide channel. In fact, this the configuration
in which I first came upon the problem. I installed the second drive
later, and when that worked, I suspected a model-specific bug in the
driver.
One gets an analogous kernel error when using the straight ide-tape
driver.
Take care,
