This is something I'm writing just so it will be added to the archives. I have a few old boxes around here with Gigabyte GA-586ATS motherboards. I tried to get them to boot a version of Bering I'd adjusted to work on Compact Flash which worked on other boards. During the kernel boot, it would fail around the time it was looking at the PCI bus. I played with the BIOS for a while to no avail. Eventually I found a BIOS upgrade for this board which solved the problem.
So, if anyone has troubles with this board, I would suggest going to the Gigabyte site and looking for the BIOS upgrade. I suspect the problem is 2.4 kernel-related as I didn't have the problem with the old Eiger image. Probably good advice to keep the BIOS current anyway, but sometimes one hears hoofbeats and doesn't expect to see zebras ;-) I always initially think that problems like this are of my own making, but luckily, sometimes this isn't the case...
