RE: Issue wit ACPI and Promise?

[Grover, Andrew]

The IDE controller is on irq 9 and I bet ACPI is, too. I've seen other
reports like this.

Either the ACPI interrupt handler is not sharing properly or the promise
interrupt handler isn't. Given that I can't duplicate it, I'm reduced to
waiting for some kind soul to send a patch.. :-(
