Same here, on every post probe and shutdown, but they seem to work.

Bingo! After disabling the onboard IDE controller everything works. 
Digging deeper and enabling both the primary and the secondary IDE 
channel, the system boots as well (which is nice because the CD ROM is 
on IDE). So the problem only occurs when the BIOS is set to enable only 
"Primary" or "Secondary" IDE channel.

I have no idea about the implications, but it works for me.
See dmesg below.


Also, we knew there could be problems with having multiple disks 
attached to the AIC-7899 so we planned for a RAID card. I will try to 
test if the problems with copying large amounts of data also occurs when 
copying from the RAID to the single disk on the AIC-7899W when all the 
disks have arrived.

Thanx,
Jochem
