Comment 15 for bug 157650

I'm downloading right now Fedora 8, and will try with it. I know it's a hopeless shot, but I have no other idea. But on the other side, I don't know how to troubleshoot and log these errors. Like you said, it's possible to go hours without a problem. The "ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x1c00000 action 0x2 frozen" error is evident, since you can't continue after. But other errors are more tricky. So if you can describe me how I can see if there are ATA errors in background, which log files should I look etc.. Then, I think I can comment more accurately on Fedora 8 behavior.

PS: By the way, my error line begins with "ata3.00: exception..." but I don't think this makes a difference?
