As anyone seen "IOATAController device blocking bus" in the
system.log? I did a google on the message but can not find any
references to this anyware. I started getting this error message on
two different laptops after upgrading it 10.3.2. When I get these
messages the hard drive is making a nasty clicking sound and all disk
IO is blocked. Doing a clean install makes the problem go way for a
while but it does come back after a few weeks.
I don't know how my experience relates to yours, but:
I have seen this several times, on a 500Mhz Firewire/USB G3 laptop,
while trying to mount a CD. In each case, I fixed it expeditiously :-}
by waiting until the dust settled, opening the CD tray, and closing it
again. The nasty clicking sound, in my case, seemed to be CD-related.
Regards,
Justin
