Hm, it seems that the buffer is running low which might end in a write-error
(buffer underrun)... You are using the aha154x; I think there is an option in
the BIOS of the controller to choose the DMA-channel... (on 1542 there is).
Make sure that the channel (I think default is DMA 6) is not in use by
another device which has direct memory access (soundcard and so on).

p.s: to enter the BIOS of the controller hit strg+A at bootup (if there is no
such message I think the controller has not any accessable BIOS)
