sata promise problems on x86_64

[Miroslav Ruda]

Hello,

 I have problems with SATA promise driver from  2.4.27-rc1 on x86_64 arch (MB ASUS SK8V).
Kernel 2.4.27-rc1 reports

and is frozen, while with 2.6.5 it works ok:

Any idea what's wrong?

I've been having similar problems with an SK8N, but with 2.6.7 kernel. It's 
ACPI related, and I suspect also effects 2.4. I guess you have ACPI enabled?

We've been working the problem here

	http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2838

I'm just working through Lens last couple of postings now.

I'm successfully running Suse kernel 2.6.5-7.75 with ACPI switched on, but for 2.4.27-rc1 acpi=off apm=off iommu=noforce works ok.

Thanks for your help.
