Hi,

sorry, if this has been asked before, but I could not find any in the
archives.

I have a Gigabyte GA7DXR with a onboard Promise PDC20265 IDE-Controller.

Attached to this Controller are 4 Maxtor 120 GB Disks.

Booting with 2.4.18 works fine. The partitons of the disk are detecded,
and I can access them.

Booting with 2.4.19-rc1 hangs on bootup.

The Promise is detected correctly.

But when it comes to the partition-check the systems hangs:

looks like this:

------snippel-------

And here it hangs

Because the patch between 2.4.18 and 2.4.19-rc1 is very big, there seem
to be a lot of changes.

Thanks in andvance for any help.....
