>From your attachments I see you have a sound card at the same irq as
the aic7880. Try to give the aic7880 an uniqe irq.
Are you using the advantsys card, or do you have other drivers
compiled in which might conflict with aic7xxx. I have previously seen
that the aic7xxx driver hangs when eata-dma also is compiled in.
Well, just suggestions.
