I got this when I got my 40G 5200 maxtor. I've got an old award bios & PII
with 440bx chipset.
The solution was to turn off udma in bios my 2.2 kernel and w98 could then
use mdma.
I noticed that when I tested with a 2.4.9 it could use udma again - even
though it remains off (for W98 & 2.2) in bios.
Andy.
