2. Hal on startup gets an invalid op/code busy from the IDE, resets IDE canceling DMA and other enabled functions. These can be restored using hdparm but eventually, unreadable sectors occur and the file system is damaged. There may, in fact, be problems with the drive involved, but these problems rarely if ever occur in 2.6.23.
It's either the hardware or the chipset, because the nvidia MCP55 chipset with sata_nv and jmicron drivers havebeen working perfectly for me so far.
I think 2.6.25 is too dangerous to use at this point.
Add this to your sources.list and build a 2.6.26 kernel:
deb http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel trunk main
Did you? I built a 2.6.26 from kernel.org.
Two items:
1. the NVidia driver 96.43-07 applies without having to patch anything
2. the VMware vmserver 1.0.6 needs update117c and then starting vmware gets an out-of-memory error.
Beyond that I am of the opinion that 2.6.26 (and 2.6.25) is stickier than 2.6.24, the last kernel that the -ck patch could be applied to.
