Title:
  kernel fails to boot,  SRST failed (errno > = -16) but will boot after
  first booting windows

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  My problem is on this particular hardware the kernel does not boot, as
  it fails to talk to the hard disks and I see a SRST failed (errno =
  -16) error messages. I have just been through my old Ubuntu cds and
  the last kernel I have that boots is 2.6.24-16 generic SMP x86_64. All
  kernels I have later than this have the above problem. I am currently
  on 2.6.32-22-generic SMP x86_64 I used rootdelay and all_generic_ide
  to get some later kernels to boot but recently even this does not
  work. I bought new hard disks as I thought this may be a motherboard
  hard disk incompatibility but I still have the problem.

  I have found that if I boot windows first, current kernels boot every
  time without any special options, so it looks like something is not
  getting set in the motherboard by later kernels that windows is
  setting

  I have also tried 2.6.34-020634-generic SMP x86_64 and it also fails
  to boot unless I first boot into windows
