Hi Bjorn,

With IOAPIC Disabled and no extra kernel parameters, the kernel hangs
trying to make a sata driver work.
WIth IOAPIC Enables with MPS 1.4 and no extra kernel parameters, the
system boot smoothly but the modem doesn't work.

At now, I'm giving up to use a 11c1:1040 driver, because it's hangs
with all tried options.

Coming back to http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/packages/ltmodem/sv92/agrsm-20080203.tar.gz,
the modem works when I do: rmmod r8169 (Realtek Semiconductor Co.,
Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01))
and screen /dev/ttyAGS3 57600.

Maybe, creating a script to remove a ethernet module, I have a
"palliative" solution. But, I'll continue trying everything work
together.

I thinking about study the source. Are there some hits to start?

Thanks
