I am having problems getting minix on the E partition of my 30 megabyte
Supra Hard disk drive ( a Seagate ST225 drive and Adeptec 4070 adapter) which
was formatted with Supra HD utility 2.61 . When I tried to "mkfs /dev/hd3 10000"
I got a series of "dicarded DMA interrupt " messages and finally a kernal 
panic. Is there any work around for this problem?
