Try booting with acpi=off

The Asus nforce 4 boards (at least the one I have, A8N-VM) have a broken ACPI implementation, and when booted with acpi enabled (the default), causes problems with other hardware in the system. Though I'm not sure it would affect the problem you're having with sata. Worth a try though I guess...

Another boog I hit was FUA doing crazy things with my disks, but I think
the sata people wanted to disable it in 2.6.16 final

Apart from this I don't remember any particular problem. Sorry
