-CURRENT on a Dell Inspiron 2500

[Stuart Walsh]

Hi,

Has anyone managed to successfully get -current booting on the above
mentioned laptop?  I can get 4.8 booting by disabling the loading of
eisa but -current seems to be somewhat more problematic.

Unfortuneatly, I can't really get a verbose dmesg output because it
hangs before it woudl get stored somewhere, but I can describe the
symptoms and if anyone wants more info i'll try and get it.

cbb0: <O2Micro OZ6933 PCI-CardBus Bridge> irq 5 at device 3.0 on pci1
is the cardbus bridge..

Then I get a few "Stray irq 0" messages and a message that they will be
ignored.

Then if ACPI is enable the rest of the devices are detected fine, but I
get a double fault after "TImecounters tick every 10.000 msec"

If ACPI is disabled it gets slightly further, but fails to probe things
like the paralell port and floppy controller complaining at be ing
unable to assign resources(some port, some memory) and then sometimes it
double faults at lo0: bpf attached and sometimes it prints "cbb0:
Unsupported card type detected" and then hangs.

Any help would be greatly received.

Regards,

Stuart
