I've moved the functions around and nothing changed. After removing the ATA_NIEN bit it started working. So it looks like ->sff_check_status() & ->sff_irq_clear() are not clearing the interrupt for what reason ever. Right now I belive that the firmware is doing something with the chip. Is it possible to reset the chip to its power-on state? ata_bus_softreset() did not help. Maybe I find something when I dig through the firmware code.... >Thanks.
