Hi, forgot to mention that I had already added a libata.force=40c boot after my 80c config issue discovery which did successfully cause the "limiting to UDMA/33 due to 40c foo" dmesg yet where there's now initial but strong confirmation via reports that the resulting UDMA/33 limit did NOT manage to fix corruption issues, thus it's more strongly likely that the "bound to ill-suited pata_amd driver" (due to incorrectly configuring speeds, or due to not configuring speeds at all due to possibly BIOS not providing emulation of PCI register accesses to Geode bus, which would be properly supported by pata_cs5536 OTOH) thing is the actual reason and might fix it (fingers crossed).
