[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#554506: SATA AHCI/Compatibility mode fix

[Wolodja Wentland]

Hi all,

I see that the bug has already been closed and I don't think that it
needs to be reopened. I took some time to look into the issue I was
facing and it turned out that I had to include the "ahci" module in my
initramfs if I want to use my SATA controller in AHCI mode.

The necessary steps were:

1. Edit /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and add "ahci"
2. Run "update-initramfs -u"
3. Change SATA option from "Compatibility" to "AHCI" in the BIOS
4. Reboot

Kind regards

    Wolodja
