You have many ATA kexts in your Extra but not the one for Intel ICH, Intel ICHx controllers work with a modded AppleIntelPIIXATA (with your device id, the vanilla one only has a couple of ids) and the vanilla IOATAFamily, the rest should not be needed at all. I would try to use fewer kexts if posible, just get rid of all the foreign ATA ones.
The difference between Normal and Legacy settings in ICH are not clear but I think in Legacy Mode you could be missing some ports (in legacy SATA behaves as a single IDE controller who can have at most 4 ports, if you have 6 SATA ports, 2 of them are disabled for compatibility; in normal mode you could have 2 different IDE Controllers, one with 4 ports and another one with 2 more ports). From what I know Apple kexts should work with normal mode.

thorazine,
Thanks.
I had tried this earlier (see an earlier post in the thread). Then I tried to remove the AppleVIAata.kext, and I got the same error.
I think you are on the right track, as this root device error is logically a chipset error, and not an OS error (related to the power management).
