I've got a relativly recent STABLE machine that I', gettng errors like this
on:

The drive in question is an IBM/Hitachi 40H unit detected as:

Nov 13 19:11:18 black /kernel: ad3: 39266MB <IC35L040AVER07-0> [79780/16/63] at ata1-slave UDMA100

Ay first I thought this might be a drive problem, so I downlaoded IBM's
Drif Fitness Tess. I've run it on this machine, in the advanced mode, and
it passes with flying colors.

So, is the disk bad anyway? Or is this some other issue? What issue could
it be? I ran the test in the exact computer, asme cables etc to elimnaye
changing them BTW
