westerndigitalhung isn't the problem.  the problem is that
the locking used by sdiahci.c originally had several races
waiting for drives to become ready.  (is there any chance you
have a quirky drive?)

i submitted a patch on may 29 that i believe fixes this problem.
but you can also use the version in my contrib area, which i
updated today.  the major change is that broken sata:pata
bridges that don't do udma mode 5 (required for sata) are
now supported.  there's also an attempt to support a via
southbridge.  but having no hardware, it's not clear that i've
got that working.
