failed to set xfermode ...

[Alan Cox]

Your current board has an utterly generic intel ICH controller. Its
probably the best supported chip of all. You've not provided any kind of
logs to do much more debug though.

The only IRQ routing issue Intel know about for that board was fixed in
the rev 31 BIOS so as you've updated the BIOS that ought to be ok.

Having checked the bug db its also a known working configuration. Do you
have SATA primary on, sata secondary off set in the BIOS and are you
using legacy or advanced mode ?
