Acer ALTOS 7000, Acer BIOS V1.2R1.0, 1993,
7 EISA slots, AIC 7770, twin channel.

It was with 2.1.0, 2.1.5, 2.1.6, and NOW with 2.2-GAMMA:

I know about it, I have worked my computer, but I can't do normal
upgrade procedure 'cause I can't boot from standart boot floppy.
Can I turn off controller pci0 in visual config or something ?
I think it's a common problem, or maybe not. Maybe only Acer hang out
after pci probing :-(.
