I just got a new Mushkin 60gb SSD, and it's now my primary drive in the ata1 spot. I've been getting these failed command: IDENTIFY DEVICE errors which are preventing rebooting and shutdown.

Does anyone know what these could be caused by, or how to start troubleshooting?

I've tried these kernels:

• 2.6.32-22-generic
• 2.6.31-17-generic

And they both have the same error.

Here is a link to my entire dmesg.

And the relevant ata1.00 parts below:
