If you post your dmesg, lspci, and config, I'll be happy to compare to my setup. It might be something as simple as the Marvell driver loading first and claiming the device. The relevant part of my dmesg looks like this: [ 4.802703] ahci 0000:06:00.0: PCI INT A -> GSI 17 (level, low) -> IRQ 17 [ 4.806351] ahci 0000:06:00.0: controller can't do NCQ, turning off CAP_NCQ [ 4.809921] ahci 0000:06:00.0: controller can't do PMP, turning off CAP_PMP [ 4.813334] ahci 0000:06:00.0: MV_AHCI HACK: port_map 1f -> f [ 4.816656] ahci 0000:06:00.0: Disabling your PATA port.

If you are using modules, you might want to blacklist "sata_mv". If you are using modules from an initramfs, you might need to update your initramfs, too.
