I would have to agree with that. I have never seen such a well documented
commit. But even then I still ran into problems, although I'm not sure how
closely related they are to the changes made. My problems seem to be with
the Soren's ata drivers. The good old "lost contact with device" messages
are back and with a vengence. It seems that now (through a mistake of my
own, in addition to this problem with the ata drivers) I have to go back
to a snapshot of current, and reinstall all the tools, as well as a
generic kernel. However, the pnp controller as of the latest snapshot
still causes me to lock up hard before I ever get booted. Isn't there some
way to disable to pnp0 controller, like in the userconfig part off the
boot floppy?
