Here is my Problem
Whenever, There is excessive I/O utilization of HDD my system hangs. By pressing ALT+F2.
can see this error message, printing again & again on the terminal in very short intervals.
ata2.00: status: {DRDY ERR}
ata2.00: error: {UNC}
ata2.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErr 0x0 action 0x0
ata2.00: DMDMA stat 0x5
ata2.00: cmd c8/00:08:06:fd:6e/00:00:00:00:/e2 tag 0 dma 4096 in
After that i Pressed ALT+PRINTSCN+R+E
voila system is stable again, and i can login.
now again after some 60secs the problems repeats & same thing is repeated.
But the 60 secs were enough for me to get Logs.
Syslog ==> http://digit.wsnw.net/uploads/dmesg.txt
Dmesg ==> http://digit.wsnw.net/uploads/syslog.txt
When the problem occurs:
1) while Booting Up
2) fschk is running
3) Due to Firefox3, Bug #215728
Which clearly means, where is no problem while idling but Is there is any Heavy I/O opeartion.
Game is Over and system Hangs

No, you have a different problem which is similar
Parent poster has a different problem from the OP, as well as a different problem from most of the ubuntu bug reports linked.
They're all hard drive problems. They're all with different hard drives - different models, different speeds, different vendors. They all have similar terms in the errors, but they're not all the same error. As near as I can tell, these problems are all hardware-specific to different hardware.
