We (AstLinux project) recently implemented a warmboot (kexec) feature  
and appears to work well for various platforms, except for the net5501.

There is no problem booting otherwise.  Some facts...

net5501, BIOS 1.33 and 1.33c

Sandisk CF card, no other drives, default BIOS settings

Linux kernel version: 2.6.26.8

The kexec -e starts fine, but comes to this point...

Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver

AMD5536: IDE port disabled

^^^ Hangs here

A similar setup with Linux kernel version: 2.6.20.21, works properly.

Any suggestions?
