My hardware:
    motherboard: Epox 8RDA3I rev 3.3 (nForce 2 Ultra)
    hdd: WD1200JB (ide, 120gb)
    cpu: Sempron 2200 (k7)
Scratch the chipset driver.  It's the SATA driver.  nForce2 is old
enough that it almost definitely needs sata_nv.
Is that right Ron?  The OP says it's IDE.  I'm using a WD2000JB IDE here
and definitely no SATA drivers.

Too true.  Sorry.

Maybe IDE is behind a JMicron bridge?  It needs it's own driver.

I tried "grep JMI /boot/config-2.6.24-1-686" under root and it had outputed:

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_JMICRON=m
# CONFIG_PATA_JMICRON is not set
