Hmm.  My 7850 doesn't crash the system unless I actually use it. :)
I'm still working on the 7850 problem.

PCI devices cannot be disabled yet.  You're actuallly disabling the
isa device ahc1.  The PCI code then steals the ahc1 unit number and
probes the device anyway.

There are plans to fix this problem, but it will be a while.
