A few weeks ago there was another report of a DVD drive failing detection on pata_amd (my CD and DVD drives work fine on pata_amd). Did some ATAPI timeouts change or something?

The old SATA driver available from the IDE menu also does not support your chip, so I don't believe there are any workarounds -- you'll need the issue fixed.
