I'm using a P2B-DS Asus motherboard with BX chipset. Standard PIIX4 stuff. The
drive is a Quantum Fireball 20.5Gb (don't have the exact model number
handy). It's a UDMA66 drive but of course I'm only using UDMA33 to it ...
I don't have the dmesg output handy from 4.0-RC3, but here's from 3.4-STABLE:
chip0: <Intel 82443BX host to PCI bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.0.0
chip1: <Intel 82443BX host to AGP bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.1.0
chip2: <Intel 82371AB PCI to ISA bridge> rev 0x02 on pci0.4.0
Beats me, it's a pretty vanilla setup. All I know is that now when the thing
boots from the cd (and after compiling a custom kernel) it doesn't sit there
and "hang" for 30 seconds or so like it did before ..... ?

Yes, very fast ... I'm really looking forward to running it (I've been
installing on a disc I can frag at will ... can't "take the plunge" until later
:).
