I recently purchased a pair of Iron Systems A210 servers for a firewall installation. The systems were ordered with no hard drives and ide-to-CF adapters onboard. They are running 3.8 -release on 512MB compact flash (SanDisk SDCFB-512). I'm seeing the following error in the same place on both systems at boot:

wd0(pciide0:0:0): timeout
        type: ata
        c_bcount: 512
        c_skip: 0
pciide0:0:0: bus-master DMA error: missing interrupt, status=0x21
wd0c: device timeout reading fsbn 0 (wd0 bn 0; cn 0 tn 0 sn 0), retrying
wd0(pciide0:0:0): timeout
        type: ata
        c_bcount: 512
        c_skip: 0
pciide0:0:0: bus-master DMA error: missing interrupt, status=0x21
wd0: transfer error, downgrading to PIO mode 4
wd0(pciide0:0:0): using PIO mode 4
wd0c: device timeout reading fsbn 0 (wd0 bn 0; cn 0 tn 0 sn 0), retrying
wd0: soft error (corrected)

Everything then continues as usual, although I'm also not doing any intentional writes to disk. Anyone have any idea what might be causing this and if it's safe to ignore (yeah, right).
