Maybe this is purely a cosmetic error where the error code can be
translated to something like "no drive attached" or maybe the drivers
assume you always configure a master drive on a controller, which
doesnt always have to be the case, especialy not with motherboards
these days where you get 2 ATA ports + 2 exta raid channels.

Yeah, it is a cosmetic error message that should have been killed quite a while ago. I just keep forgetting about it. Will kill it soon.
