I have a P35 based ASUS board. Would that be such a chipset? Meanwhile I 
have successfully booted Haiku with your AHCI driver. Only the DMA is 
turned off on the harddrive. idestatus says "by user request" or "user 
config" or something to the like. Only I have nowhere turned it manually 
off. When I try to shutdown, I get the eventual DMA timeout kernel panic 
when the system tries to sync. This is then the same problem as when I try 
to boot with the generic IDE driver.
To even boot with the AHCI driver, I had to remove said generic ide driver.

Best regards,
