Hi Doug,

I have the following hardware:-

Intel 440BX AGP-PCI BIOS, Pent II MMMX 233Mhz
AHA-2940 Ultra/Ultra-W BIOS v 1.25

and my experience after carefully testing each patch in turn is that

pre6 through pre11 boot fine without timeouts
pre12 through pre15 fail to boot owing to timeouts

A dump from a successful pre10 boot is here:-

FDC 0 is a post-1991 82077

I'm new to this list, so if there's anything already known to be wrong
with the above hardware, excuse me for regurgitating stuff.

Otherwise, I hope the info is useful; anything else on request.

I don't know what "sequencer code" is (downloaded from card or in driver
software etc), but the no. of instructions varies between patches. Is
this correct?

Neil.
