Bug Description
Ubuntu 10.04 suffers from a very slow boot on due to a 10 second or so pause while the kernel sets up the SATA controller. The problem occurs on every boot at this point in the kernel initialization sequence:
ata1: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0)
Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 14.780019] ata1: SRST failed (errno=-16)
Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 20.330017] ata1: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0)

Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 30.380018] ata1: link is slow to respond, please be patient (ready=0)
Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 59.840018] ata1: SRST failed (errno=-16)
Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 59.840022] ata1: limiting SATA link speed to 1.5 Gbps
Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 64.850019] ata1: SRST failed (errno=-16)
Jun 15 13:51:02 jmvpro kernel: [ 64.850021] ata1: reset failed, giving up
This is an Intel DQ45CB motherboard with the latest bios. I believe ata1 is the eSATA port. I think my hard disks are connected to ata2 and ata3
This problem is also present in the 2.6.35 maverick backport kernel from the kernel-ppa.
This problem did not occur with ubuntu 9.10.

Hi Jarrett,
If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text. Please let us know your results.
Thanks in advance.
