Good thinking Alan! it seems ACPI is causing the trouble.

2.4.18 - OK
2.4.19 - OK
2.4.20 - OK
2.4.21-pre2 OK  (using pdc202xx_new driver)

2.5.52 with ACPI - Failure, IRQ troubles wrong IRQ assigned for promise
                   boards, lockup of box during boot
2.5.52 no ACPI   - OK !!!

What information do I need to provide to fix this problem?

Frank.

It's a known, relatively common problem... if you're willing, ping me next
year and we can try to work through things.

PS the GOOD news is that this appears to be one of the last big bugs in
ACPI! (yay) <knock on wood>
