Jeff Garzik, ... my decision on the kernel source code. It seems to indicate the Intel ICH7 is AHCI compatible:
We (yesterday) found out that our board (a Supermicro PDSMI+, ICH7 as well) needs the proper BIOS setting in order for it to appear as a AHCI capable controller. Precisely, we found if we enabled "SATA Enhanced Mode", then enabled "AHCI" in the BIOS, the chipset identifies itself as a 0x27c1 device rather than a 0x27c0 device. This is probably exactly the issue you ran into. Try your BIOS settings.
