We had some problems booting 2.4.0-test7, and discovered that Linux fell into a panic while parsing the MP Configuration table. After some debugging, we found that there are 4 Busses entries: Bus #0 is PCI Bus #1 is PCI Bus #18 is XPRESS Bus #19 is EISA Unfortunately, the XPRESS bus parsing calls panic(), since unhandled. We just commented out the panic and the system went up as in 2.2.14. We are ready to submit a patch to make our MP-system (NCR S40) boot, but we do not know exactly what to do with such bus. BTW, do you think that it is the same bus as the X-Bus which supports RTC, Keyboard, Mouse and BIOS within a PCI bus ?
