Hi, Edward.

I bisected the PCI stuff and ended up with a bad commit 12c22d6ef299ccf0955,
which was made by Linus:

,----[ git show 12c22d6ef299ccf0955e5756eb57d90d7577ac68 ]
| commit 12c22d6ef299ccf0955e5756eb57d90d7577ac68
| Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>
| Date:   Wed Mar 26 11:22:40 2008 -0700
| 
|     Revert "PCI: remove transparent bridge sizing"
| (...)    
`----

The patch that I am using to make this laptop boot at least is essentially a
revert of that commit.

Just for the sake of documentation, I am attaching here the patch that makes
things work (at least partially).

Any directions to debug this properly are welcome.


Thanks,
