I keep getting the following error messages during bootup with kernel
2.6.23.12 :

scsi 4:0:0:0: CD-ROM            TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633A  UO00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5

ata3: soft resetting port
ata3: SATA link up 1.5 Gbps (SStatus 113 SControl 300)
ata3.00: configured for PIO4
ata3: EH complete

The error repeats many times and it takes about 10 minutes for the box to boot.
If I unplug the DVD drive the problem naturally disappears.
The machine is an Intel SR1530SH.

Below is the output from lspci :

I've tried switching acpi off, using irqpoll, switching from AHCI to
RAID in the BIOS but it makes no difference at all.
I also tried kernel 2.6.21.5 (Slackware 12.0) and the problem is still there.
Any ideas?

Thanks
Paul
