2.4.6-pre9: Failed HPT370 detection

2.4.6-pre9: Failed HPT370 detection

[Gav]

This kernel refuses to detect my HPT370 chipset. (where my root filesystem 
is, on raid0). It just hangs where the detection usually takes place, so no 
oops and no meaningfull bugreport :/

I have the same options set in my config as I always have, I've never had any 
problem with this before. 

CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366=y 
CONFIG_MD_RAID0=y

Anyone else seen this? Maybe its more VIA weirdness.

Actually its the drives ON the HPT chipset that arent being detected, not the 
chipset itself.

usually:
HPT370: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 98
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:13.0 
HPT370: chipset revision 3 
HPT370: not 100%% native mode: will probe irqs later
    ide2: BM-DMA at 0xe000-0xe007, BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:pio
    ide3: BM-DMA at 0xe008-0xe00f, BIOS settings: hdg:DMA, hdh:pio
hda: SAMSUNG SV0322A, ATA DISK drive 
hdb: Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer Plus 9100b, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
hde: IBM-DTLA-305040, ATA DISK drive
hdg: IBM-DTLA-305040, ATA DISK drive
<etc>

in 2.4.6-pre9:
HPT370: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 98
PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 00:13.0 
HPT370: chipset revision 3 
HPT370: not 100%% native mode: will probe irqs later
    ide2: BM-DMA at 0xe000-0xe007, BIOS settings: hde:DMA, hdf:pio
    ide3: BM-DMA at 0xe008-0xe00f, BIOS settings: hdg:DMA, hdh:pio
hda: SAMSUNG SV0322A, ATA DISK drive 
hdb: Hewlett-Packard CD-Writer Plus 9100b, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive

Sorry about that.
