2.5.6-pre3 boot hangs in ide probing

[Pierre Rousselet]

The motherboard is abit BE6 (4 ide, piix and hpt366) with a pIII coppermine.
For reference below is dmesg with a booting 2.5.6-pre2.

booting 2.5.6-pre3 hangs at :

I observed the same on pre3. But the bug is not ide related,
since the plain ide patches applied on top of pre2 just worked.

(I happen to own the same hpt366 card as you.)

Thanks. 2.5.6 actually boots cleanly.

Unfortunately my Athlon based system on 2.5.6 boots,
but I get tons of messages about unresolved symbols from
particular modules during X startup - which is a sign
for the fact that the recent memmory management changes
found between pre2 and pre3 are still hossed.
My intel based notebook however appears to be working.
(Im of course choosing the processor type on both systems...)
