- 2.5.x won't boot on some 440GX

Problem understood now, feasible fix in 2.4/2.4-ac. (440GX has two IRQ routers, we use the $PIR table with the PIIX, but the 440GX doesnt use the PIIX for its IRQ routing). Fall back to BIOS for 440GX works and Intel concurs.

With 2.5.69, 2.4.20 and 2.4.21-rc2-ac1 on Dell Workstation 610
(440GX) I see:

     PCI: Using configuration type 1
     ...
     PCI: Using IRQ router PIIX [8086/7110] at 00:07.0

lspci says it's an 82443GX. Why does this one work when others are
broken?
