That's an ATA-ATAPI5 "SET FEATURES" command with parameter 0x66 which is failing. Feature 0x66 is "Disable reverting to power-on defaults". It seems that not all ATA HDDs implement this command; I've seen the "ata_set_feature: (0x66,0x0) failed" message on quite a few S-x86 boxes with IDE/ATA drives and it seems to be harmless. The ATA-ATAPI5 draft standard describes it as: 8.37.20 Enable/disable reverting to defaults Subcommand codes CCh and 66h allow the host to enable or disable the device from reverting to power-on default values. A setting of 66h allows settings that may have been modified since power-on to remain at the same setting after a software reset.
