Your mcclock hints look ok, but you dont seem to be probing any ISA devices
except those that have drivers that self-identify.

My guess is that your hints are not working.  At the loader prompt, do a
'show' and you should see all the hints listed.  The other possibility is
that you have a 'hints something.hints' config line that does not have valid
hints in it.  (static hints are used in place of loader hints).

Cheers,
-Peter
