Where do I get the restart_sequencer patch (and others)?  I'm trying
to get my ASUS P2B-D/P2D-BS 7890-equipped motherboard.  I'm using
2.1.109 with the aic78xx pre-5 patch applied, and when booting gets
to the driver it sends the reset, delays 5 sec, then aborts with a
time out, 'tries harder', and aborts the reset.  Over and over.

Hardware: dual P-IIs, 400MHz, ASUS BX motherboard with aic7890, 128MB
          RAM, 9GB ultra wide drive.
