Re: booting error on db1550 using linux 2.6.12 from linux-mips.org

I don't have hardware now and will try that option tomorrow. But I
remembered I got the same output before I applied your patch. I wonder
if using the PCI clock as the sole input can help. I read about the
source code provide by HighPoint Technologies. They use
"pci_write_config_byte(dev, 0x5b, 0x21);" instead of
"pci_write_config_byte(dev, 0x5b, 0x23);".

will let you know the result tomorrow.

Thanks
