I'm having one go right now :( Why is it with so many IDE drives the first thing to go is DMA? At work I have several machines with drives that attempt to, and fail to, go into DMA and then fall back into non-DMA and run quite happily. Is this a function of drive or chipset? herbie - To unsubscribe, send email to majordomo@luci.org with "unsubscribe luci-discuss" in the body.
