Hi!

I've played a bit with my "mirror" machine

- 200MHz Pentium-MMX
- 64MB RAM
- jbglaw@mirror:~$ cat /proc/ide/hd*/model
WDC AC2850F # System drive
IC35L040AVER07-0 # \
IC35L120AVV207-0 # > Storage (with DM/LVM)
Maxtor 4W100H6 # /
- jbglaw@mirror:~$ lspci |grep IDE
00:07.1 IDE interface: Intel Corp. 82371AB/EB/MB PIIX4 IDE (rev 01)
- Linux v2.5.73
- <*> Intel PIIXn chipsets support

Basically, if I enable Taskfile I/O, the box refuses to boot (basically,
the first drive sounds really broken like "clack clack clack" and no
data comes off the drive so there's no partition table, no root FS, but
a panic:) Is anybody interested in nailing this bug down?

Disabling Taskfile lets me boot the box, but hdc doesn't like TCQ and
gives errors:

ide_tcq_intr_timeout: timeout waiting for service interrupt
ide_tcq_intr_timeout: missing isr!
hdc: invalidating tag queue (0 commands)
hdc: drive_cmd: status=3D0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: drive_cmd: error=3D0x04 { DriveStatusError }
[above messages repeat...]
