This is only a problem if you want to run something on the other
side of a PCI-PCI bridge chip (like the SMC EtherPower 2). A properly
implemented PCI card will attach the interrupt pin on each device
...
ASUS doesn't seem to understand what a PCI-PCI bridge is and why
someone might want to use one. Their BIOS only detects and initializes
I have at least 6 ASUS based routers which use SMC EtherPower 2 and ZNYX
4-port ethernet boards. One router has got 10 ports, all occupied. The
motherboard is the SIS chipset one, P90. I have got Triton II boards also,
but I'm not absolutely sure that I have tested those with multiple ports in
use yet (but they are correctly probed and both ports on EP2s are usable
alone).
