you mean the kernel has to deal with broken hardware (the broken hdc)
in sane way instead of hanging, right?
> After recompiling kernel 2.4.18 with patch 2.4.19 wtere was a trouble:
> The system hangs after loading in place 'Partition check'. Fragment dmesg:
> hdc: SAMSUNG SV0511D, ATA DISK drive
> ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
> hdc: /* hdc: <-- trouble */

> In kernel 2.4.18 it was so:

> ide_dmaproc: chipset supported ide_dma_timeout func only: 14
> hdc: status error: status=0x58 { DriveReady SeekComplete DataRequest }
> hdc: drive not ready for command
> [PTBL] [620/255/63] hdc1 hdc2 hdc3
in case it's needed: "ide1=nodma" in kernel boot line.
Do you have intel piix support compiled in, btw?
