ACPI & Promise Ultra 100 controller ???

[Marc Brekoo]

Hi all,

I'm having the following problem on my new Athlon-box. Whenever I compile a
kernel with ACPI-support and boot it, the system just dies when probing the
drives
connected to the Promise PCI-card. Note that it just dies, no oopses, no
messages; the only thing that responds is the reset-button :(

I've tested the same ACPI-enabled kernel without the IDE-controller, and it
works just beautifully. I've incuded the dmesg-output from this test-run.

Kernel versions 2.4.7 and 2.4.8-ac2 show the same behaviour. What could be
causing this?

Thanks in advance,
Marc Brekoo.
