Jeff was looking at some core bugs in this area. Its one of the ones I
can I think safely disclaim responsibility for (that and the fact that a
timeout of a command early on in 2.6.16-rc causes an oops)

Well, I was able to eventually recover the drive so that it responds
without any errors and functions correctly. Though, writing seems to be
pretty much out of service. Whenever i try writing anymore (haven't
rebooted yet since the last errors) all it does is make a strange noise
like the lens motor is trying to seek beyond it's limits and then I get
the same series of errors that i originally got.
If it helps any, I had to run a sg_sync on the drive to eventually get
it back into a workable state. Maybe it's having some sort of buffer
problem that's not being internally flushed or cleared ? I dont know.
