I updated this computer from FC6 to Fedora 7 earlier this afternoon. Now when I first boot it, immediately after printing the "Starting Red Hat Nash" line, it pauses and over the course of the following two minutes or so it prints the following error message three times:
ata1:00: failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x4)
After that it continues booting normally and everything appears to be working as it should.
How can I fix this?

Here is some more information from dmesg that may be of some value. If there is anything else that I should post regarding this issue let me know.

A similar issue was present in the GA FC6 kernel for me. It went away in an update. Other than the minor delay everything was functional. Do file a bug report including the dmesg in http://bugzilla.redhat.com

This appears to be a bios issue of some kind. I switched my IDE-Config in the bios to "legacy" from "enhanced" (which was the default) and set it to "SATA P0/P2,P1/P3" and my computer now boots normally without that error message.
However, on what seems to be a related note, I have discovered that my CD burner is missing. It doesn't show up anywhere with any IDE-Config setting, either legacy or enhanced.
(Other settings under "legacy" are "P1/P3,PATA" and "P0/P2, PATA" but none of them make the CD drive appear.)
FC6 worked fine with the bios set to "enhanced".
