| It seems that it is just going on and on. Shouldn't it back down to non
| DMA mode after a while? Is there a way to disable the DMA on the install

How many times did it retry? It looks like everything is in place to default
to PIO mode in this case, but you have allow it to try 3 times before it
fallbacks to PIO.

Update the timeout code to try fallback to PIO if problems
arise in DMA mode.
