2.2.18pre20 (still) hangs on boot when it gets to the part where it
detects the MEGARAID card.
This is a shame, since 2.2.18 with NFS3 would be very nice on a big
filestore such as the one this is running on.
Further details:

Hmm, I got a patch from AMI that fixed it for me for 2.2.18pre18.
That patch wasn't applied as-is, though Alan said a megaraid fix was
applied to 2.2.18pre19. I didn't have a chance to test pre19 or pre20
yet, though, since I can only test it on a production machine that
now runs OK with pre18+fix, the test machine lays on someones desk
in a lot of parts at the moment ;)
Anyway. Here's a patch that ``upgrades'' the 2.2.18pre20 megaraid.c
to the 2.2.18pre18 + AMI patch version that I have. Please let
us know if it makes any difference.
[and, if you can, and this patch works, try to remove parts of the
patch until you find exactly what it is that makes it work]

Thats what I need to know. Looking at the patch it makes no changes at all
