ya, you are right, I added one of the patches given in the link which forced udma4 selection. But the problem still exists. Can anybody suggest me an alternate other than fresh install. I have a laptop with no cdrom and limited internet.A kernel switch to 2.6.22 on hardy didn't solve the problem. Any older kernel that might work ? Does 2.6.20 work fine ? Thomas's tests shows 2.6.20 working fine. Is it recommended to use this kernel on hardy ?
