Hi!

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to ask this but I need help with a
sticky problem.

I have several systems with broken PCI chipsets that I need to upgrade to
3.4-R from 2.2.7-R. I've patched 'pcibus.c' to fix the problem on these
systems (reversed the config mode probe order) but now I need to build
boot/install stiffies to get these machines up and running. Is there any
quick/simple way to do this without going through a 'make release'
process?

As a side issue, any chance of this patch making it into the standard
distribution? I've tested it on as many different systems as I can,
ranging from 486 to P-II and it's not broken on any of them.

Regards,
- Sean.
