[Bug 50835] Re: Dapper will not boot on SiS5513. HDD "lost interrupt"

[antivert]

Using noapic allows me to boot (hooray), however it takes a very long
time, and DMA is disabled for my hard drive. Once I'm fully booted, I
can enable DMA.

Error while booting is: 
[17179605.616000] hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x60
[17179605.616000] hda: DMA timeout retry
[17179605.616000] hda: timeout waiting for DMA

[17179687.336000] hdb: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x60
[17179687.336000] hdb: DMA timeout retry
[17179687.336000] hdb: timeout waiting for DMA

Takes around 5 minutes to clear this error while booting. Earlier kernel
2.6.12-10 does not have this problem, and boots much more quickly. DMA
is enabled with the earlier kernel.
