Hey Justin,
the error I receive is:
no DRQ after issuing WRITE
ide0 reset: success
And after a few minutes to a few hours or when the system is under higher load.
(copying large files is enough) I get that error.
My kernel where all i386 kernels, currently I try a 2.4.26 kernel epcially for
the crusoe processor. It might be so that the frequency (longrun system) is not
set correctly so I'll try that first.....
