Yesterday, my relatively new install of Gentoo failed to boot with the following repeated messages: ata5.04: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 0) ata5.04: hard resetting link ata5.04: failed to resume link (SStatus 0 Scontrol 0) My first thought was that something is wrong with my old IDE (ATA) drive. (The Gentoo system partition was on /dev/sda5.)
what motherboard model is this? probably BIOS disk controller setting needs to be set to either SATA AHCI or
something else?
