Need help understanding (error) messages
 
At the conclusion of a shell script that is running from within a CD-R, I get the following messages:

PHP Code:

hdbirq timeoutstatus=0xd0 Busy }
idefailed opcode wasunknown
hdb
DMA disabled

The script I am running is doing the following (which for brevity certain steps have been omitted):

PHP Code:

.
.
.
mount -t ext3 /dev/hda1 /mnt
mkdir 
/mnt/home
mount 
-t ext3 /dev/hda2 /mnt/home
.
.  
# write files from CD-R to /mnt and /mnt/home
.  # setup grub on HDD
.
cd /mnt
pivot_root 
cdrom
exec chroot 
sh <dev/console >dev/console 2>&1
mount 
-a
sync
sync
sync
sleep 5
# eject CD-R
eject 

I am running the kernel 2.6.11.1. Do any of the messages indicate that I may have performed an "illegal" instruction in the script? Could it possibly be something to do with how my kernel is configured (I don't understand the kernel panic part)?

Thank you in advance for any help that can be provided.

haha mounting aerobics...
Alright... I have no idea what you are trying to do... but mounting a drive directly into the mount directory certainly isn't a good idea, and then mounting a drive into the other one just adds to the confusion. I would just keep it conservative with stuff like that.

Well a kernel panic certainly isn't good, but I think you should be able to produce one with "legal" instructions.
