Hallo!
A friend's Compaq Presario 905 is having the following problem while trying to
boot from CD (tested with 8.2, 9rc2 and 9rc3):
...
ALI15X3: IDE controller on PCI bus 00 dev 80
PCI: no IRQ known for interrupt pin A of device 00:10.0. Please try using
pci=biosirq
...
> Partition check:
> hda: spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7
...
I've tryed booting "linux pci=biosirq" with no luck. He hasn't got the option
in bios to assingn irqs manually.
Last: we've found that booting "linux ide=nodma" reaches the following step
("Enabling PCMCIA extension cards"). Then it shows the following:
Bank 3: b40000000000083b at 0000000001fc0003b0
Kernel panic: Unable to continue.
As it's got 256Mb ram and the video card is 32Mb we've added "mem=224M" and
"mem=223M" to boot parameters with no luck.
HELP! He's going back to windowwwwwwwwwssssssssssssss...
Thanks in advance ;)
