That didn't help, and I still get the error. At least now it shows the
ata exception that can be found in dmesg logs from googling "cdrecord
ahci sata". It looks like a controller timeout (this has happened
before, causing DMAR error lines in dmesg). Is it worth disabling AHCI
or not? And should this be also asked on lkml because this looks like
a controller/driver/ahci issue? I don't want to contribute to the
information overload between the [PATCH X/Y] foo and other messages.
