I can say that things have resolved magically. I tweaked around in the =
ASRock BIOS with some SHARE Memory parameter - isnt=E2=80=99t that =
something that has got to do with mapping memory space of controllers =
into CPU address space? Switched that to 32M rather than AUTO,=20
IIRC.

Anyway everything is working now as it should.
