I'm working on an embedded product based on Gentoo linux 3.6.6 running on a Mini-ITX motherboard. We're looking at switching motherboards (from a Jetway NF9D-2550 to an Advantech EIMB-214), and to test that I'm trying to boot our existing SATA development drive from the new motherboard.
When I try, the system boots through BIOS and GRUB, until I get the following two messages:
[0.588839] BIOS EDD facility v0.16 2004-Jun-25, 0 devices found [0.588902] EDD information not available. The system then hangs and goes no further. I've done a lot of playing with BIOS settings (AHCI versus IDE, USB, SATA enable/disable, etc) and boot parameters (edd=off, verbose), to no avail.
Here's the one thing I found that helps. If I plug in a PS/2 keyboard and wait until the boot process gets to its usual hang point, then most of the time when I press a key the boot process goes a step or two further.
Each time I press a key (unless I do several too quickly) one or more new log lines appear. The timestamp on the left of each log line continues to increase rationally, e.g. if I wait ten seconds and then press a key, the new message timestamps are 10 seconds larger than the previous ones. There's some correlation between how long I wait and how many messages appear for a keypress: the longer I wait the more messages appear.
It doesn't seem to matter what key I press; even SHIFT or CAPS-LOCK works. Even pressing the external soft power button works! A USB keyboard does nothing; only a PS/2 keyboard. And, having no keyboard plugged in just hangs at the usual spot.
If I persist long enough at this, I'll get to a boot prompt, and can login, but even then things repeatedly lock up until I press a key.
Any clue what might be going wrong here?
Edit: With the original motherboard booting from the development SSD, and the production SATA-DOM mounted, the output of sudo parted -l is:

I tried some of the suggestions, to no avail. The following changed nothing:
Adding
isapnp_reserve_irq=5to the kernel command lineCompletely resetting BIOS to default values
Edit 5:
One more piece of evidence: once I'm looking at a bash command line (on the console/VGA display), and typing commands, once in a while I'll see a burst of log messages from the kernel that look like a call trace. Omitting the timestamp info and instruction offsets, here is one:
kernel: Call Trace: kernel: ? rcu_pending kernel: ? rcu_check_callbacks kernel: ? update_process_times kernel: ? tick_sched_timer kernel: ? tick_mohz_handler kernel: ? __run_hrtimer.clone.22 kernel: ? hrtimer_interrupt kernel: ? smp_apic_timer_interrupt kernel: ? apic_timer_interrupt kernel: ? calc_global_load kernel: ? acpi_idle_enter_simple kernel: ? cpuidle_enter kernel: ? cpuidle_enter_state kernel: ? cpuidle_idle_call kernel: ? cpu_idle kernel: Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = 299966219294 ns) kernel: Switching to clocksource hpet BTW, 299966219294 ns is just about 5 minutes.
Edit 6:
I've been booting from various LiveCDs. Results:
GParted 0.14.0-1 Live x86 CD: works fine, including shell script with repetitive output
Ubuntu Desktop 12.04.1 x386: boots, but has the same "waiting for an event" disease. Had to hit keys repeatedly during the boot process. When finished booting into Xwindows, opened terminal window, created shell script that printed out a message once a second, and ran; after each output line, had to press a key (e.g. SHIFT) to continue. Interesting thing: if I open TWO terminal windows running this script, BOTH lock up, but when I press a key BOTH step forward. After about twenty minutes running, the whole system locked up.
Gentoo Live DVD livedvd-x86-amd64-32ul-20140826.iso, booting x86: everything worked just fine.
While in Ubuntu 12.04.1, I managed to grab some hardware reports:
