Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 16.04 64bits WON'T BOOT from a SSD Kinsgton Savage (2016) on chipset
ASUS M2N68-AM SE (2010) with non-AHCI SATA2
SATA Settings: 32 bit transfers: ENABLED, AHCI mode: not available.
Fresh installed system FREEZES inmediatly after starting to boot, PC looses its
video signal.
kern.log does not register anything.
This motherboard does not support AHCI, but the SSD does. Fresh
installed 16.04 kernel does not disable NCQ (AHCI).
Same system will slowly boot with errors when disabling 32 Bit transfers from
BIOS, and freeze.
Same PC boot ubuntustudio 12.04 live usb automatically disabling NCQ when SSD
is connected.
SAME SSD WILL BOOT without erros on chipset Intel Pinetrail-M with SATA3 and
AHCI.
(Same SSD and both PC boot fresh Windows 10 in sixteen seconds without any
issue.)
Other tests:
SATA Settings: 32 BIT TRANSFER: DISABLED, AHCI: not available.
System boots from SSD with ATA errors and taking some minutes when it should
take some seconds.
Kernel DOES NOT disable NCQ after failing (it does on 12.04 live, same PC)
System becomes definetly unresponsive a few minutes after start up, mouse
pointer still moves but does not respond to clicks, and PC has to be hard reset.
(In the posterior boot, system cleans some orphan inodes for one of the
dm-crypt volumes)

transfers: enabled OR disabled.
System boots normally from SSD without any errors.

Then kernel finish booting and system works perfectly on Pine Trail M.
I will try to disable NCQ by parameter in the kernel run command, as
M2N68AM-SE is my everyday-work PC.
