Are you using the old IDE driver or the newer libata based
pata_macio ?
Yes, it finishes the boot, and appears to work correctly. If a device
is
missing, I do not know what it is.
I think I am using the old IDE driver.
Interesting. Does it make a difference if you switch to pata_macio ?
After a few tries, I managed to change over to pata_macio. Fortunately, most of
the system used dev-by-id or UUID, thus most of the process was getting all the
kernel pieces built in.
Unfortunately, the original problem remains. I have resumed the bisecting - only
11 steps to go. I should have it by Friday! :)
