I have more information on the boot hang. The boot sequence proceeds
normally until where the SCSI initialzation should be. Then it hangs.
Some time later, longer than 5 minutes but shorter than a half-hour,
i get the following message on the screen:

wait_on_irq, CPU0
irq: 1[0 1]
bh: 0[0 0]
<[c019abee]> <[c0194f09]> <[c0198d8b]> <[c01361f8]> <[c0109e9c]>
<[c0124eec]>

Could this be a result of PCI device re-ordering/re-assigning?

Hardware:
Tyan Tomcat IV D, w/ twin P200's and 128MB memory 512K cache.
BT930 SCSI with 4 disks, tape, and CDROM.
ATI Mach64 PCI Video
3c595 PCI NIC
SB16 sound card. (seldom used)
3c509b ISA NIC - driver modularized.

509b driver is the only module on this machine. (No kmod, no kerneld.
No support for either in kernel.) All else is built in - as it
should be...

Hope this helps.
