The requested details are inline below. I really appreciate you looking into this - Thanks. If there are any other thoughts and ideas to try to isolate the problem am happy to try and revert.

Nothing like it - a simple SATA controller (see below for lspci output) >Can you put it in SATA compatible mode, >or if a regular storage controller IDE instead of AHCI? No, the BIOS does not have and such options - no SATA compatible option in the BIOS and no IDE controller available in hardware. >Otherwise, try booting a regular distro on it and copying & pasting "cat >/proc/interrupts" here. Below are the outputs of /proc/interrupts, lspci, lsusb, and uname. Taken on the latest tails, with all possible peripherals disabled in the bios. ---snip--- cat /proc/interrupts: CPU0 CPU1 CPU2 CPU3 0: 8 0 0 0 IO-APIC 2-edge timer 1: 0 0 444 0 IO-APIC 1-edge i8042 8: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC 8-edge rtc0 9: 0 2 0 0 IO-APIC 9-fasteoi acpi, INT0002 12: 0 140 0 0 IO-APIC 12-edge i8042 18: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC 18-fasteoi i801_smbus 32: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC 32-fasteoi 808622C1:00 43: 0 0 0 0 IO-APIC 43-fasteoi dw:dmac-1 45: 0 52 0 0 IO-APIC 45-fasteoi mmc0 115: 0 0 41183 0 PCI-MSI 327680-edge xhci_hcd 116: 0 0 0 1883 PCI-MSI 311296-edge ahci[0000:00:13.0] 117: 27211 0 0 0 PCI-MSI 32768-edge i915 118: 0 0 0 0 hdmi_lpe_audio_irqchip -hdmi_lpe_audio_irq_handler hdmi-lpe-audio 119: 0 0 0 0 INT0002 Virtual GPIO 2 ACPI:Event 120: 0 0 0 0 PCI-MSI 180224-edge proc_thermal NMI: 14 15 17 16 Non-maskable interrupts LOC: 71011 66702 72938 68160 Local timer interrupts SPU: 0 0 0 0 Spurious interrupts PMI: 14 15 17 16 Performance monitoring interrupts IWI: 171 20 11 17 IRQ work interrupts RTR: 0 0 0 0 APIC ICR read retries RES: 14206 11466 11147 11923 Rescheduling interrupts CAL: 8511 6653 4262 5411 Function call interrupts TLB: 235 283 104 108 TLB shootdowns TRM: 0 0 0 0 Thermal event interrupts THR: 0 0 0 0 Threshold APIC interrupts DFR: 0 0 0 0 Deferred Error APIC interrupts MCE: 0 0 0 0 Machine check exceptions MCP: 3 3 3 3 Machine check polls HYP: 0 0 0 0 Hypervisor callback interrupts HRE: 0 0 0 0 Hyper-V reenlightenment interrupts HVS: 0 0 0 0 Hyper-V stimer0 interrupts ERR: 0 MIS: 0 PIN: 0 0 0 0 Posted-interrupt notification event NPI: 0 0 0 0 Nested posted-interrupt event PIW: 0 0 0 0 Posted-interrupt wakeup event lcpci: 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series SoC Transaction Register (rev 21) 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 21) 00:0b.0 Signal processing controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series Power Management Controller (rev 21) 00:13.0 SATA controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series SATA Controller (rev 21) 00:14.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series USB xHCI Controller (rev 21) 00:1a.0 Encryption controller: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series Trusted Execution Engine (rev 21) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx Series PCU (rev 21) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx SMBus Controller (rev 21) 00:00.0 0600: 8086:2280 (rev 21) 00:02.0 0300: 8086:22b1 (rev 21) 00:0b.0 1180: 8086:22dc (rev 21) 00:13.0 0106: 8086:22a3 (rev 21) 00:14.0 0c03: 8086:22b5 (rev 21) 00:1a.0 1080: 8086:2298 (rev 21) 00:1f.0 0601: 8086:229c (rev 21) 00:1f.3 0c05: 8086:2292 (rev 21) lsusb: Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub Bus 001 Device 003: ID 090c:1000 Silicon Motion, Inc. - Taiwan (formerly Feiya Technology Corp.)
