    I've tried it with and without DMA. But in both cases i got errors
    although the were different. I made some changes so i can't post the
    error with the DMA turned on. I can reverse the changes on Monday and
    post the errors for you.

    I'm trying to get a serial line connection working to log the bootlogs.
    I can make them as well on Monday.

    I tried to boot with the cpqarray removed from the 2.6.3 kernel. In that
    case i don't get the errors from the ide devices during the kernel boot
    so i guess the solution made in the 2.6 according the ide problem is
    working. Again on Monday i want to try the patch from Erik B. Andersen
    on the 2.4 kernel. If i understood it all right. I'm not really into
    kernel hacking etc.

    THX for the help so far..
