I've recently reinstalled a linux system from scratch except for the
kernel, which is 1.3.81 and I've had working fine before. After the
install I'm getting the following errors in my syslog file and the system
freezes.

Jan 1 05:48:54 nebula kernel: hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
Jan 1 05:48:54 nebula kernel: hda: read_intr: error=0x10 { SectorIdNotFound },
CHS=995/4/38, sector=672985
Jan 1 05:48:56 nebula kernel: hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest Error }
Jan 1 05:48:56 nebula kernel: hda: read_intr: error=0x10 { SectorIdNotFound },
CHS=995/4/38, sector=672985
Jan 1 05:48:58 nebula kernel: hda: read_intr: status=0x59 { DriveReady
SeekComplete DataRequest Error }

Have I gotten something wrong somewhere, or is this a sign that my hda is
about to die?

Since that machine is currently down for the count and that's where I'm
getting this mailing list, please respond via email only. TIA!
