[various problems with Quantum LPS IDE hard drives deleted]

I'd just like to insert a data point here that I have been running
386BSD 0.0 and 0.1, NetBSD 0.8, 0.9 and current on one and then two
Conner CP3104 IDE hard drives for about two years now.  And, although
I used to get the hang bug occasionally (which was fixed in mid-
December with the timeout patches to wd.c), I've never had the damage
to my filesystem you guys are talking about.  Maybe it's specifically
that drive that has problems?
