I've had a similar problem, but this was on 2.2.13 after a dma channel
locked on the second IDE hard drive. Also, that happened
after 44days of
uptime, so I'm not overly concerned. Though, there was no error messages
on the console itself, it was logged in /var/log/messages as a dma channel
lock.

I'm not sure if that would help you or anything, but I thought I would
pass that along. Also, I'm compiling a new kernel for the system tonight,
so there is no need to address the error, considering that it's an older
440TX board (and after I get the new kernel running, well see what
happens).
