Sadly the problem remained. Trying this kernel with the 'ide0=autotune' was also unsuccessful. For the curious, the kernel gets to the point where the drive partitions are examined and then things go splat. A sample of the messages ... hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma_status == 0x20 hda: (__ide_dma_test_irq) called while not waiting hda: drive not ready for command hda: lost interrupt Things limp along as the partitions on the hda drive are gradually printed out, but there is one change in the kernel messages hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma_status == 0x21 I'll try modifing the ali15x3 driver with the patch you sent and see how that goes.
