Comment 53 for bug 422994

Same here, on a Dell PowerEdge 2800. I am using:

10:01.0 RAID bus controller: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID Controller (rev 50)
 Subsystem: VIA Technologies, Inc. VT6421 IDE RAID Controller
 Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx-

  Status: D0 NoSoftRst- PME-Enable- DSel=0 DScale=0 PME-
 Kernel driver in use: sata_via
 Kernel modules: sata_via

and I am seeing the same errors. I don't have any disks attached, but a (new) dvd drive. System crashes each time on any access to this drive. This is reproducible. Kernel is 2.6.38-10-server #46-Ubuntu SMP x86_64

Did anyone open a new bug for this as advised by Stefan?
