I just installed CentOS 5 on a computer. On boot, I get the a error message, 
related to 2 SATA disks. These errors did NOT appear on version 4.4 with the 
EXACT same hardware. Could someone please tell me what these error are and 
if there is some known way to prevent them?

My configuration:

- 2 Hitachi SATA 120 GB Harddisks
- Intel P4 3GHz
- Tyan Tomcat i875p motherboard
- 1 GB ECC RAM
- 2 Intel Gb NICs
- 1 Intel 10/100 NIC

Error message follows:
