Description of problem: I have an orinoco_cs wavelan PC Card that requires reserve=0xff490000,0x00aff000 to be added to the kernel parameters to boot without a hang. As of about a month ago, an update of Rawhide made the hang happen even when reserve= is added. The hang happens pre-init, so I suspect that the kernel is ignoring the reserve=, or that the PCMCIA code is no longer following through with the request. The log below shows that the quoted range is not being reserved. I don't yet know whether this is Fedora-specific or also upstream. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.17-1.2449.fc6 How reproducible: Every time, on boot. The output just before the hang is: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0 cs: memory probe 0xff400000-0xffcfffff: excluding 0xff400000-0xff48ffff
This happens with current linux-2.6.git too, so it's not Fedora-specific.
