Hi Eric,

I had the same with an overclocked board: the PCI speed was too high
and it gave this kind of errors; actually, I've a board on which
clock is 105Mhz => PCI=35MHz, and I still have this kind of error,
from time to time. 

The only PB it leads was about udma33 HD's speed: if I don't use
hdparm (in the hwtools package), which has an "hwtools" executable
in /etc/rc.boot; when this error occurs, the speed falls to 4MB/s
instead of 14.8MB/s.

As the data are not corrupted at all, I don't really care.
