Comment 139 for bug 84964

Unfortunately the fix still does not work for me :-). Again, I have a new
system with Abit AB9 Pro motherboard. I was looking into the Bios setting
and it actually has 2 SATA controllers: JMicron and Sil3121 (or something
like that). Both controllers are set to PCI mode although only the JMicron
has the ACHI (?) mode.

In any case, I just downloaded the current Feisty (with the March 27 date)
and tried to boot it. I got a bunch of messages that looked different than
befoer but the end result was pretty much the same. At the end I was
getting a series of messages for ata5 stating things like "failed to set
xfermode" then "failed to recover some devices", then "retrying in 5 sec".
After a few seconds a very similar series but saying something about
limiting UDMA speed to 133 then to 100. The same series appeared for ata6
and after that I got the "ATA abnormal exit" thing and this was it.

Is my motherboard that peculiar? Anybody else with Abit out there having
the same or different luck.

Finally (and I am repeating myself), I do not understand WHY CAN I BOOT 6.10
just fine???

Thanks for everybody's efforts although the results are very disappointing
for me - it looks like I will be stuck with running Windows for a while.
Any words of wisdom or suggestions will be greatly appreciated,

Andy
