Just curious, i just ran into a similar problem booting with the
the ICH5 (and SATA) with gentoo install CD (late 2.4.x), with a hyperthreading
enabled P4.  Had to boot with the SMP kernel to get past the lockup
at the ICH5 probing step.  Probably completely unrelated, but
I thought I'd pass it on.
