Then the bridge is misprogrammed

What's IDEIRT, some ISA bridge register? And why should one set [A]PIC to level mode for legacy mode IDE? :-O

You need an NDA and then they'll send you the data sheet for the bridges
and other logic. It's all programmable.

   That could be a very long story... :-|

"He has an OpenPIC, it's PowerPC SoC, so no ELCR either"

Really - he's using a designed for PC ISA bridge etc.. he might have all
sorts of stuff on it.

Ah, indeed. I meant to say that 8259 and ELCR are bypassed for PCI IRQs (or at least Anton says so :-).
