Fw: 2.6.24.X: SATA/AHCI related boot delay. - not with 2.6.24.3

[osb972ww-linuxczmil]

 Greetings,
  I'm having a problem with 2.6.23.1-42 (Fedora 8) properly driving a SATA 
drive.  Although it is detected during boot as indicated by the dmesg below, 
once the sytstem is up and running, the drive is not accessible.   The second 
issue is with the CFdrive on the the primary IDE.  It works, but I can't enable 
interrupts with hdparm -u 1 /dev/sda.   

 The interesting thing is when I put in a Fedora 5 system with a 2.6.17 kernel, 
everything works as expected.  I can hdparm -u 1 /dev/hda and it works as  expected, and
 the SATA drive is detected and works properly all on the exact  same hardware.  
 
 I've tried several different SATA drives also.   Thery all work on the old 
 Fedora 5/ 2.6.17 system, and none work on Fedora 8/2.6.23 or 2.6.24 kernels.
