You don't mention which kernel you're running...
In your kernel config, what is the setting of CONFIG_IDEDISK_MULTI_MODE?
From 2.4.18's Configure.help:
Use multi-mode by default
CONFIG_IDEDISK_MULTI_MODE
If you get this error, try to say Y here:
hda: set_multmode: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: set_multmode: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
If in doubt, say N.
