I spoke with mjg59 in #ubuntu-kernel. He told me to remove the CD-drive. 
After doing so. The boot process went back to normal. (small stall at the 
beginning, but only 30 seconds max)
No longer do I get any ata errors .

Attached is dmesg for Linux finalbeta-laptop 2.6.20-14-386 #2 Mon Apr 2
20:34:35 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux without a CD-drive.
