So this rather painful and compiler-errorful bisection session ended up at:

commit 3d6392cfbd7dc11f23058e3493683afab4ac13a3
Author: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@...cle.com>
Date:   Mon Jul 9 12:38:05 2007 +0200

    bsg: support for full generic block layer SG v3                                 


What is happening is that my old dual-PIII IDE-PIIX box running
hacked-about FC1 is locking up early in initscripts, just after "Finding
module dependencies".

Config is http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/config-vmm.txt with CONFIG_SCSI=n.

Occasionally I'll get an NMI watchdog timeout, but it's a rather
uninteresting one: the stack trace just points up into the idle task.

This:

 	case HDIO_GET_32BIT:	    val = &drive->io_32bit;	 goto read_val;

fixes it.


I added this:
