Hello there,
First of all, I apologize for multiple copies. We have big troubles
with our local network and I have lost halt of my outgoing mails. I
have looked at the mailing list archive to check if my mail of yesterday
has reached the mailing and I have the impression that it has been
lost. So I re-post it today.
I have tried the new version of the 2.4-ac brand of Linux kernel on my
Sony Vaio PictureBook (equipped with a crusoe processor). That is,
have tried 2.4.20-rc1-ac4. This version compiles but at boot time
have a kernel panic. Here is a trace of the error (I apologize for the
typo, I have typed-in what was displayed on the screen).

I hope this mail will help. Many thanks for your help and for your work.
Very sincerely,
-- Manuelps: Just for the information, I included here a previous mail I have sent, describing the problem I have with the main distribution of the kernel.
-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----
[1.] One line summary of the problem: =====================================
The DMA support cannot be enabled for the harddisk
[2.] Full description of the problem/report: ============================================
As far as I have understood, this computer uses an ALi M1533 chip for controling the disk (even though, I must admit that I'm totally confused between the reference "ALi M1533 PCI to ISA Bridge" and the reference "ALi M5229 IDE"). If I compile the kernel (version 2.4.18, 2.4.19, 2.4.20-pre10, and 2.4.20-rc1) enabling the M15x3 support, I always have the same problem: the machine does not boot. I can't send the actual error message because the machine hangs without logging any message. However, I got something that ends with a message such as:
-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|----- ALI15X3: chipset revision 196 ALI15X3: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 80 ALI15X3: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs later -----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----|-----
Nothing more. At this point, the keyboard is ineffective. The only solution is to switch off the computer.
On the web site: http://hale.org/~bhoward/issue_7/pcg-c1mrx.html, Bruce Howard reports a bug in the alim15x3.c kernel. I have tried to apply his patch but this does not help. He also mention to boot the kernel with the flags "ide2=0x180,0x386 pci=conf2". I don't think I understand the meaning of these flags but what I'm sure about is that they don't help.
In conclusion, the only way I have to boot the machine is using the generic IDE controler that works fine excepts that it does not support DMA for the disk. In consequence, I have very poor disk performance.
Many thanks, in advance, for your help.
