I thought that the IDE errors were part of recent versions of Hijack - that it normally gives those kind of errors before the drives spin up, and then it clears...


Ah, well if that is the case, then it probably is just that disk taking a while to spin up that's causing those errors. If so, that probably points at that disk being on its way out.


No, there is nothing here to indicate any kind of disk problem at all.

The "master" IDE device stays in reset until it finishes a post-reset handshake with the "slave" device, which is why you'll often see hdb/hdc appear before hda.

Nothing unusual. No need to rush out and replace a perfectly good drive.
