Jae-hyeon,

Does your system work without using the AHCI driver?
or is it required?
Of course, even if the AHCI driver is not needed,
it shouldn't be oopsing like this.

It looks like the ata_piix driver is the one that is
actually being used, from what I can see here.

Please send your /proc/interrupts, /proc/iomem, /proc/ioports,
and 'lspci -v'.

Thanks,
