Latest working kernel version: n/a
Earliest failing kernel version: no idea but short tests failed on Ubuntu
6.06.1 & 7.10
Distribution: Kubuntu 8.04.1 Hardy Heron
Hardware Environment: Intel D945GCLF + AtomCPU, CF TRANSCEND TS4GCF120 at
CF->IDE adapter via 80 wire cable to single pata/ide port, CF is master and
only device connected to pata/ide, SAMSUNG 750GB at sata, 2GB DDR2 ram
Software Environment: Kubuntu 8.04.1 Desktop, basic installation
Problem Description: CF fails during boot, partition table cannot be read, no
access to CF

sequence of failure:
libata
- detects at ata1.00 CF including name and size correctly
- configures IF for MWDMA2
- assignes IF to scsi
- goes on with sata
[] ata1: PATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 bmdma 0x2090 irq 14

sd
- driver takes over and starts with CF as sda
- still starting with correct parameters
- then timeout upon a command + error messages "failed to IDENTIFY" and
"revalidation failed"

sudo hdparm -I /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
 HDIO_DRIVE_CMD(identify) failed: Input/output error

needless to say that CF has been checked in a CF card reader on same board's
usb and works perfectly there

Steps to reproduce:
- failure comes every time
