Severe problems with 2.4.19-rc2-aa1 on k6-II

[Thunder from the hill]

Hi,

I'm running 2.4.19-rc2-aa1 on an AMD K6-II 450 (bluemoon).
The CPU is family 5, model 8, stepping 12. It's constantly at no more 
than fifty degree Fahrenheit, so it's certainly not a temperature bugset.

The problems are:

1. When booting, I always have to specify hde=none hdf=none ... hdl=none, 
because otherwise IDE will start probing wildly. (never had that before)
2. Mouse and keyboard are both on one port. Now if I load gpm, the whole 
PS/2 controller gets stuck until I unplug both mouse and keyboard and then 
re-plug them. It all worked fine ever before.
