2.4.0-test11: hangs while "Probing PCI hardware" for Sony Vaio C1VE (Crusoe)

PhoenixBIOS, Sony Vaio C1VE

I did some printk() debugging, but the kernel hangs at various places in pci_setup_device(), mostly in pci_read_bases().

I will assist in debugging if needed.
Regards,
Wolfgang

This is a Transmeta laptop, right?

See the recent thread with "Transmeta" in the subject. The problem seems to have been identified, and hopefully the fix will appear in test12-pre4, when released...

Yes, the C1VE has a Crusoe processor (5600 stepping 03).
I didn't find the "Transmeta" thread, though.
test12-pre still has the problem. And to change the PCI access from <Any> to <BIOS> or <Direct> doesn't help either.
In the thread you mentioned, did they post any patches?

No patch but a description, and Linus will apparently put it in the next prepatch.
