G'day all,
I have a Benq laptop (Celeron 2.4GHz) which is using an ALi chipset. I
have it working with kernel 2.4, but would like to migrate it to 2.6.
However, when I use 2.6.0-test9 (I have tried mm2, 'vanilla' and bk17), I
end up with a boot time crash. This is primarily to do with the
initialisation of the IDE controller, as far as I can see. I have included
the kernel message below. As I mentioned before, this works fine on
2.4.22... Does anyone have any idea what might be going wrong...?

Cheers,
Dan Craig.

The boot error is as follows:

ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx
