Hello Everyone,
I'm running Fedora 8 and my system freezes (for about 20 to 40 seconds) a
couple of times a day. When it does I see this on /var/log/messages:
------------------------------- cut here -------------------------------------
kernel: ata3.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x2 frozen

/dev/sdc is my main drive. The only thing I can think of...is that this drive
is actually a PATA drive connected to the SATA controller on MoBo thru
a "SATA-TO-IDE Adapter" that I connect on the drive. Perhaps the converter is
faulty...or could this be a known issue with libata? Anyone had same
problem?
Thanks,
Jorge
