I have recently, with Karmic Koala Beta, experienced strange behaviour with my acer travelmate 800, with a [0.986327] ata1.00: ATA-8: SAMSUNG HM160HC, LQ100-10, max UDMA/100

Error ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x6 frozen
shows up in the log.

After having worked for a while, errors shows up indicating disk problems, partitions are remounted ro. But after rebooting, thinng are good for a while.

Thought the disk was defect somehow, but after having read this, and bug 285892 I am not so sure anymore.
