SubjectRe: Booting problem, 2.4.19-rc5-ac1, ali15x3
Hi,

Please apply and test this patch.
Probably pci_config_byte 0x79 is vendor specifics.
Newer japanese hardware which use ALi IDE with Crusoe got hang up.

This patch will solve the following problems without option 'ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66'

>>With rc5, I get this same error unless I have 'ide0=ata66 ide1=ata66'
>>on the kernel command line. However, -ac1 hangs with or without these
>>options.
