This worked with 2.6.19 and before. I haven't had a chance to dig deep yet but it seems both Franck Bui-Huu and Atsushi Nemoto had patches in 2.6.20 that might have caused this. This still happens with 2.6.22. I cannot boot current git for other reasons. If anyone has an idea which specific patch might have caused this, please let me know. Otherwise I'll try to find time in the next few days to revert various patches. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/
