Jens,

Tried 2.5.8-dj1 here with IDE TCQ and it doesn't make it through bootup. The lockup (no oops) happens at various places, usually
during a disk-intensive operation like starting PostgreSQL. Disk & chipset detection always goes ok; the lockup is much later in the
boot cycle. Nothing shows up in the logs.

A kernel without TCQ boots reliably.

Boot drive is hda (IBM-DTTA-351680). System is SMP ppro, no preempt.
