ms7308e pirq issues - coreboot

8 Feb 2003


      Hi,
For some reason with the latest LinuxBIOS CVS sources Linux is having 
trouble with PCI IRQs.  I'm using the same old Matsonic MS7308E that has 
worked in the past.  Same thing happens with the irq_tables.c in CVS and 
one that I generate with getpir.  I pasted relevent messages from LB, 
etherboot, and Linux below.
The 'verifying pirq routing table failed' line seems suspicious to me... 
but I haven't looked at it much yet - I know a lot of people use this or 
similar board, anyone seen something like this before?
Thanks,
Jake
