The problem, as reported by kernel -v is when it attempts to scan the isa bus for PnP devices. I have disabled the PNP OS is in the BIOS, Enabled it, tried manually configuring the ISA devices(instead of Auto for PNP in the BIOS, set it to Manual). I tried disabling the PNP parallel port bus scan as specified in LINT, I added the PNPBIOS option to the kernel, nothing worked or even helped. I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to fix this, or if it will be fixed in the base system, or if there is some way to completely disable PNP in 4.2. I know there was in 2.2.x and I think in 3.x, but it seems to have disappeared in 4.2. Thanks, and please reply to this e-mail address as I am not subscribed to this list. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Shopping - Thousands of Stores.
