Yes, that would explan it...

Well, I tested it with vanilla test9 and it has exaclty the same problems with
TCQ here as test9-mm1 has. This means:

- TCQ enabled at boot time (TCQ depth is set to 8) kills the init script
- TCQ set to 1 with hdparm kills nearly everything
- TCQ set to 8 kills just some programms
- TCQ set to 32 seems to work

Attached is the dmesg from vanilla test9 where I set the TCQ depth to 32. If I
set it to 1 the messages are the same (as explained in my original mail,
there is no warning or error in the logs) except 'hda: tagged command
queueing enabled, command queue depth 32' will be 'hda: tagged command
queueing enabled, command queue depth 1'...

Btw. hdparam correctly sets the TCQ buffer depth, but TCQ always has to be
disabled before setting an other TCQ depth, that confused me... ;-)
