Does that mean I'm in trouble?


For me (I have a slightly different motherboard but the same VT82C686
South bridge) it meant massive data corruption until I switched off DMA.

However the 2.4.21pre6 changelog contains the following:

Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk>:
  ...
 * correct handling of VIA PCI and of IDE legacy irq

Which looks pretty promising.


Thanks for that confirmation.
I guess it's back to 2.4.16 for now.
