failing PCI-bus



I hope I put this question in the right list.

I am able to start my IBM 520 8641 in DOS mode, initializing the RAID-array, but linux refuses to 'see' it.

The trouble is that linux can't enable the PCI-slots in this MCA-PC (6 MCA slots, 2 PCI-slots)

dmesg keeps reporting:
PCI: PCI BIOS revision 2.10 entry at 0xfd82c
PCI: Using configuration type 1
PCI: Probing PCI hardware
PCI: Unable to handle I/O allocation for 00:40 (0200), tell <mj@ucw.cz>
Complete list attached.
I replied to mj@ucw.cz, but no answer.....

Also starting with the loadlin-command, using options like pci=conf2 (PCI type 2), pci=nopeer, mca-pentium (just trying), 
pci-io=9000 etc gives the same outcome.

I need the PCI-slots (2 in total) because the ethernet and RAID controller are connected to them!

Information on the PCI-structure:

PCI		| PCI host bridge	| PCI RAID	| PCI ether	| PCI-ISA-bridge	| PCI MCA	| PCI VGA	 	| PCI SCSI bus	
Latency timer	| 20		| 20		| 50		| 00		| 00		| 00		| 40
Interrupt pin	| 0		| 1		| 1		| 0		| 0		| 1		| 1
Interrupt line	| 0		| F		| A		| FF		| 0		| 0		| B
Mem addr.	| -		| 40000080	| 40000000	| 500		| -		| 38000000	| 30000000
I/O addr.		| -		| 9080		| 9000 		| -		| 508 & 510	| -		| C00

I used the kernels from Debian 2.2r2 and 2.2r6.

Is there a way to enable the PCI-slots??

Thanks for any help,
Frank.
