Bug description:
  Hi,

  I will like to report that when I try to boot Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS 32-bit from 
a hard drive on a system with Diamond Multimedia Speedstar A50 (SiS 6326 AGP 
8MB SDRAM, AGP 3.3V) graphics card and Intel D815EAA2 mainboard (Intel 815E 
chipset), the system will crash during boot in a few seconds.
  Floppy disk drive indicator light goes on and stays on.
  I won't even see the Ubuntu graphical logo on the screen.
  However, if I boot Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS 32-bit from a DVD, then it will boot 
fine.
  I also happened to own a PCI version of SiS 6326 AGP graphics card called 
Palit AGP6326 graphics card (SiS 6326 AGP, PCI card, 4 MB FPM or EDO DRAM).
  This card will boot fine with either DVD boot or hard drive boot.
  Based on these results, I suspect there is a bug in either Intel AGP GART 
device driver or Intel PATA device driver for ICH2 southbridge.

  System Configuration 1:

  - Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS 32-bit
    * All updates issued as of 10/15/2012 have been applied.
  - Intel Pentium III 1 GHz
  - Intel D815EEA2 mainboard
    * BIOS Version P21-0039 (last BIOS release)
    * Power -> ACPI -> ACPI: S3 State
    * Power -> ACPI -> Video RePOST: Off
  - 512 MB PC133 SDRAM
    * 256 MB module
    * 128 MB module
    * 128 MB module
  - Diamond Multimedia Speedstar A50 graphics card
    * SiS 6236 AGP
    * Chip Revision H0
    * 3.3V AGP card
    * 8 MB SDRAM
    * VGA BIOS Version 1.22a
  - Gateway EV700 17 inch VGA monitor
  - Seagate ST320414A 20 GB PATA hard drive
  - Pioneer DVR-105 PATA DVD-RW drive
  - Toshiba XM-6402B PATA CD-ROM drive
  - PS/2 keyboard
  - PS/2 mouse

  System Configuration 2:

  - Palit 6326AGP graphics card
    * SiS 6236 AGP
    * Chip Revision H0
    * 5V PCI card
    * 4 MB FPM or EDO DRAM
    * VGA BIOS Version 1.28q
  - Other than the graphics card, the system configuration is identical to 
System Configuration 1.

  Note that if I am correct, there are SiS 6326/6326 AGP/6326 DVD.
  Both of the graphics card had a SiS 6326 AGP chip even though one of them was 
a PCI card.
