Public bug reported:

I have a wretched MythTV box which was originally built with a 32 bit
version.  As the motherboard I used didn't work with MythTV I swapped it
out for a new 64 bit Asus M3N78-VM.  Sadly MythTV still doesn't work due
to numerous bugs which I have now given up trying to fix as life is
simply too short.

So... the last thing I decided to try was to start again by doing a
fresh install using a freshly downloaded MythTV 64 bit CD.  But this
will not boot.  I then tried my Ubuntu 64 bit CD which I used recently
to build a desktop machine.  This too does not boot.  In both cases the
boot process drops to busybox and displays the following error messages:

ATA3: Failed to set transfer mode (err_mask=0x40)
ATA3: Failed to enable ATAPI AN (err_mask=0x4)

The machine in question is:

Motherboard: Asus M3N78-VM
CPU: AMD Athlon X2 5200
RAM: Kingston 2Gb
Hard Drive: Samsung 1Tb SATA
DVD: Samsung SATA
