Hello
I've just buy a new ata 133 disk and when I try to partition it or
mount any partition from it I get the same error lines:
hdb: task_no_data_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdb: task_no_data_intr: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
hdb: Write Cache FAILED Flushing!
I also get this message when booting, the dmesg output is:
hda: ST340810A, ATA DISK drive
hdb: Maxtor 6Y080L0, ATA DISK drive

I'm using Debian SID and 2.6.6 kernel with no patches. My computer has
an AMD athlon proccesor if this can be usefull.
Excuse my poor English.
Thanks

Ignore it, it isn't fatal in any way. Or upgrade to 2.6.7-rc3.
