Install problem at partition check

[Michael Procario <procario@hepc06.phys.cmu.edu>]

I am trying to install hamm on Pentium 120 MHz system with 48 Meg that is 
currently running Redhat 5.0.

When I boot with the rescue disk, I get the boot prompt and return. Things
proceed ok for awhile.  Until I get this error:

Partition check:
 hda:hda: dma_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequestError }
hda: dma_int: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }

Earlier in the boot sequence it reports:

that the harddrive is a 
MAXTOR 90288D2, 2747 MB with 256 kb cache CHS=5583/16/63, DMA

and that the ide controller is 
i82371 PIIX (Triton)

Since the system runs fine under Redhat with a custom 2.0.33 kernel, I think
the hardware is ok. I initially suspected a kernel incompatibility since the
rescue disk is 2.0.34. However, I checked and I can run with a custom 2.0.35
kernel, that I had been playing with.
