Hi, 
I know a few people have had ATAPI_TIMEOUT errors when installing
5.3-RELEASE on SuperMicro motherboards. I got it successfully
installed on a SuperMicro X6DHE-X8 which has dual Broadcom 5721 which
are not supported in 5.3-RELEASE. I wrote up the solution here:

Hope this helps anybody facing ATAPI_TIMEOUT problems. 
Ben.
