  You should probably upgrade to 2.2.2

  The errors, look really familar.  Is sd1 the Grand Prix?  Is it
always sd1?

  I found the Grand Prix to be very unreliable.  So if sd1 is the Grand
Prix, and sd1 is always the cause, rip it out.

  Also, 2.2.2-stable is better able to handle recovery.  The drive still
times out, and the system will freeze for a couple for seconds, and
continue on.
