Has anyone experienced an IDE disk problem on RedHat 4.0 kernel (2.0.18) ?



Problem -
 Disk I/O error. Not on a specific application. (happend twice so
 far. 2 weeks difference. once after a short on period) 

 - Only reset escapes from Linux, but the system fails to access
   the disk, unless the machine is turned off and back on.
 - Never happends in Windogs.
 - It can be H/W problem, but because of another IDE problem
   (IDE CDROM can not mount few CD's that Windogs can read),
   I suspect the kernel.

Does someone experienced such a problem ?
How stable is this kernel ?

More information,
 -  P/133, 2.5G Quantom H.D.
 -  Commercial RedHat 4.0. Kernel 2.0.18.

Thanks,
Shlomo.
