I have an AOpen AX63Pro (Apollo Pro chipset), and I have NO
problems at all with the chipset support. But I am also using
the 2.2.17-05 kernel. I have used it in my own compiled kernels
for the last 4-5 months.
I have had the chipset support enabled for a long time. So either
you forget to add the idebus=41 (or whatever) on your overclocked
machine, or you are running into hardware related problems. I
remember seeing that only IBM and Western Digital drives can
reliable run in an overclocked machine. I have IBM drives only.
