I have a 5.1-current system of Nov 10, also using rev 1.23 of ata-lowlevel.c. Without atapicam in the kernel, it boots ok. With atapicam in the kernel it hangs at the messages (written down from the screen) (probe2:ata1:0:0:0): Retrying Command (probe3:ata1:0:1:0): Retrying Command (probe2:ata2:0:0:0): error 22 (probe4:ata2:0:0:0): Unretryable Error there are a bunch (15?) more lines like this, and then it just hangs. db
