I have a similar chipset in my office server: 88SE6145. If yours
can run
in AHCI mode, you just need "ahci.marvell_enable=1" on your kernel
command
line, or "options ahci marvell_enable=1" in your modprobe.conf. (I
have
ahci built-in, and no initramfs, so I put the option in my grub.conf.)

Neither works for me unfortunately.

sata_mv is not related to this hardware.

pata_marvell works with 6101/6121/6141/6145 PATA ports.

ahci works with 6101/6121/6141/6145 SATA ports, with marvell_enable=1.

I think you might have me (Phil T) confused with the original poster, Phil
Reynolds [1].

No confusion. You suggested blacklisting sata_mv, and I note above that sata_mv has nothing to do with the hardware in question.
