I already described the problem, now in more detail:
2.4.18-pre3
ide.2.4.18-pre2.12102001.patch
is booting but when checking the partition table of hdf on a hpt370
it hangs in read_cache_page in read_dev_sector from fs/partitions/check.c.
This is what I could find out.
Without the ide-patch it works without any problems.
Hardware:
Athlon TB1400
Epox 8kta+pro (via)
secondary ide controller hpt370 with the most recent bios from the hpt page.
hdf: IBM-DCAA-33610, ATA DISK drive
All other infos could be found in the dmesg output at the end of this email
Best wishes
Norbert

WIGAN (n.)
If, when talking to someone you know has only one leg, you're trying
to treat then perfectly casually and normally, but find to your horror
that your conversion is liberally studded with references to (a) Long
John Silver, (b) Hopalong Cassidy, (c) The Hockey Cokey, (d) 'putting
your foot in it', (e) 'the last leg of the UEFA competition', you are
said to have committed a wigan. The word is derived from the fact that
sub-editors at ITN used to manage to mention the name of either the
town Wigan, or Lord Wigg, in every fourth script that Reginald
Bosanquet was given to read.
