Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.20-4-generic
The kernel oopses when loading the sata_promise module. My board is a
MSI K8T Neo2 - FIR and disabling the Promise Controller in the BIOS
doesn't help. :-(
The only workaround to be able to boot seems to be:
rm /lib/modules/2.6.20-4-generic/kernel/drivers/ata/sata_promise.ko
update-initramfs -c -k 2.6.20-4-generic
lspci |grep -i promise
