can't boot up a udb, too many correctable ECC errors.

[Bruce Edwards <bruce@octree.com>]

I am having the same boot up problem with my UDB, I get a plethora of
correctable ECC machine checks while loading the drv1440 floppy.  This
very well could be a hardware problem, but the SRM console memory test
doesn't complain (of course, it might not have the interrupt enabled).
It also started when I upgraded the rescue disk several months ago (and
I don't have the old one anymore).

Is there anyway to disable the catching/printing of these correctable
ECC messages when booting the kernel?  Is there some kernel flags I can
set or driver I can inhibit?  Thanks.
