The debian box has 1 hard drive. Can't remember what I did with the partitions during the install. System appears to be working but every few minutes I get the following error: hdb: status error: status=0xd8 Busy ide failed opcode was unknown hdb: DNA disabled hdb: ATAPI resetcomplete hdb: request sense failure status =0x51 Drive Ready Seek Complete error hdb: request sense failure error=0x04 Aborted Command I thought that hdb would be a second drive but as I only have 1 in the machine seems strange. Also, sounds rather drastic but still seems to boot and work if the errors are ignored. No other os on the machine. Any ideas? Keith
