Very Computer

I am using a Compaq LTE5000 docked. This set-up has two PCIC
controllers. I have tried using "irq_mask" and  "poll_interval" in my
rc.pcmcia, but neither seem to prevent the following error from occuring
when I boot Linux:

 Intel PCIC probe:
    Cirrus PD672x, LED, RING, at 0x3e0, 2 sockets

 No worries... UNTIL....

 irq mask (Cirrus) = 0x4eb8, status changed on irq 11 hdc:irq
timeout:status=0x58 {DriveReady SeekComplete DataR..}
 ide1:reset:success hdc:irq timeout....

 The last two lines repeat themselves ad infinitum and I have to boot
from a floppy and rename rc.pcmcia to boot again.

 I have tried: "irq_mask=9" in rc.pcmcia to force it to use irq 9
"poll_interval=100" in rc.pcmcia "exclude irq 11 {and others}"
 in config.opts

 None of which make any difference. Iam very >:-( about this, can anyone
help? Thanks

Just a thought (No, I haven't had to do this before, and, no, I'm a long
way from sure, and, no, I haven't read the docs.... etc etc).
