Upgraded my Pioneer DVR-215D to latest Firmware (version 1.18) as 'multics'
did, and updated my motherboard BIOS.
That removed the errors on the SATA channel which had the Pioneer attached to
it.
But I still got errors on sata ports that didn't have any drives attached to
them!
Error message (below) will be sent out three or four times and after 30
seconds or so in initramfs, linux-image-2.6.27-7 will give up and
continue booting.

I turned off all my unused sata ports in BIOS, by changing 'Extended IDE Drive'
to none.
[ Marked in red on monitor in my attached pictures. ]
With this BIOS fix, my machine will boot without any sata/ide errors.
