Do you mean:
     ata1: command 0x35 timeout, stat 0x50 host_stal 0x4
     hda lost interrupt
     mpic_enable_irq timeout
Because others reported that here:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75145.html
and here:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-89712.html
so you are not alone.

general google query
    http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&safe=off&c2coff=1&q=ata1+command+timeout+stat+mpic_enable_irq+timeout
shows some FC4 responses as well.

unforuntately none of these seems to have a clear resolution.

does "uname -r" report kernel version 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4? this is the
latest "updates" kernel.
