A few of us (myself included) have seen this problem, although it seems to have shown up most often on IBM ThinkPads (in my case, a T21). > I have a Sony Vaio notebook (PCG-V505DXP) which runs 5.2-CURRENT > but which hangs when booting 5.3-CURRENT or 6-CURRENT. >=20 > The hang occurs after the following bit: >=20 > ata1-slave: FAILURE - ATAPI_IDENTIFY no interrupt > ata1-slave: FAILURE - ATAPI_IDENTIFY no interrupt >=20 > On 5.2-CURRENT, the CD drive is immediately detected after the > second message is displayed and the boot continues normally.

There's more discussion (and a patch for RELENG_5) in the thread on this list entitled "No booting - ata1-slave: FAILURE". I understand the root cause is "hardware idiosyncracies", although that might be putting it mildly. Anyways, I'm running with the RELENG_5 patch on the aforementioned ThinkPad and life is good.
