That happened for my banana pro again for linux-u-boot-bananapi-next version 5.16
[ 3.592900] ahci-sunxi 1c18000.sata: PHY power up failed.
[ 3.592980] ahci-sunxi: probe of 1c18000.sata failed with error -5
Downgrading to 5.01 works fine.
apt-get install linux-u-boot-bananapi-next=5.01
For some reason 5.04 not found right now:
apt-get install linux-u-boot-bananapi-next=5.04

E: Version '5.04' for 'linux-u-boot-bananapi-next' was not found
Looks like regression in the configuration.
Redwid got a reaction from Igor in Banana PRO: Testers wanted! SATA drive not working on some boards.
