by With 2.4.18 everything works fine:

With 2.4.19-pre3 and pre3-ac3 the disk type and size are reported correctly
but the systems hangs at the partition check (I couldn't find a copy of the log on
the disk so I edited the above to match what I remembered on the screen):

Mar 13 13:56:14 athlon kernel: Partition check:
Mar 13 13:56:14 athlon kernel: hde:
I tried the experiental ide timeout workaround and that does print a timeout message
after a few seconds but the system still hangs there.
Its a Tyan 2462 athlon SMP with real SMP CPUs. There is another disk and a cdrom on
this controller but due to cable lengths I can't switch things around.
I am willing to try any patch or suggestion...
