I still get the errors on boot: kernel: Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00beta4-2.4 kernel: ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx kernel: CMD646: IDE controller at PCI slot 01:03.0 kernel: CMD646: chipset revision 3 kernel: CMD646: chipset revision 0x03, MultiWord DMA Force Limited kernel: CMD646: 100%% native mode on irq 4,7e0 kernel: ide0: BM-DMA at 0x1fe02c00020-0x1fe02c00027, BIOS settings: hda:pio, hdb:pio kernel: ide1: BM-DMA at 0x1fe02c00028-0x1fe02c0002f, BIOS settings: hdc:pio, hdd:pio kernel: hda: ST34342A, ATA DISK drive kernel: ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx kernel: hdc: CD-ROM 56X/AKH, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive kernel: ide0 at 0x1fe02c00000-0x1fe02c00007,0x1fe02c0000a on irq 4,7e0 kernel: ide1 at 0x1fe02c00010-0x1fe02c00017,0x1fe02c0001a on irq 4,7e0 (shared with ide0) kernel: Partition check: kernel: hda:end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 0 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 2 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 4 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 6 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 8 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 10 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 12 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 14 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 0 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 2 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 4 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 6 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 8 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 10 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 12 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 03:00 (hda), sector 14 kernel: unable to read partition table (and of course the "unimplemented Sparc system call 188") However, the system boots fine and as the kernel.log is written without errors, I'm not sure if these errors can safely be ignored or are still an indication that something may fail horribly later... I never really tested older 2.4.27 kernels beyond seeing these messages, so I'm not sure is anything has actually changed. 'fdisk -l /dev/hda' returns the correct output. Cheers, FJP
