I have a P5Q Deluxe motherboard which comes with ICH10R. One of my

ICH10R in AHCI mode in BIOS. It is almost impossible to get the hard
disk to initialize properly. Here is the relevant portion of the
kernel log:
General question: Is it possible a/the drive is not AHCI-compliant? For
example if one uses older (non-3.0Gbps SATA drives) or IDE->SATA
converters, can one use AHCI with these drives or do they have to be
true sata drives w/out a bridge?
It shouldn't matter. There's no such thing as a hard drive being AHCI
compliant or not.
