I investigated that problem some time ago
(we have the same problem with an ASUS P4B533 MB).
The problem seems to be that the PCI device has not
been properly initialized by the BIOS (not a big help to know).
I discovered that Alan Cox had re-written a C-source file
in 2.4.20-pre7-ac3 that contained a function for
initializing the pci device in case the BIOS had 'forgotten".
I did not try the AC kernel because I am not sure that
it has support for the XFS that I am using.
Does anybody know if there is support for XFS in
official Linus kernels? And I did not dare just to
copy the file into the Mandrake kernel.
The source file had also had its name changed.
I may have a look at it, again.
