Re: 2.6.19-rc6-mm2

Andrew,

I booted without the video and vga settings with earlyprintk=vga and got output.  The
kenerl was complaining about a crc error.  Checking the patch list I found:

crc32-replace-bitreverse-by-bitrev32.patch

reversing this patch fixes booting here.

Please do not push this on - it breaks amd64 here.

Thanks
Ed Tomlinson
