It is more of a debug tool. Note that AHCI driver has its downside -
e.g. it is impossible to chainload anything, because it relies on BIOS
interface and we cannot go back to BIOS after AHCI driver run. And of
course it gets far less test coverage. If you are OK with it you can
build core.img to use native drivers:
grub-install --disk-module=native ...
