I get some problems around the IDE area, it doesn't like DMA or cannot
find the IRQ. The problem is there for 2.4.20 and 2.4.21 but I've
actually got one 2.4.20 kernel working and I'm trying to work out why it
works and another one doesn't.
It's a bit annoying as the IRQ timeouts slow the alpha right down, takes
about 10 minutes to boot.
