Peter,

I had to use the archive to find out to which original posting your are
replying. It would be good to mention the reference in the beginning
line.
Anyway, you are answering to a posting from November 13th 2004!

What's the reason for replying to such old list mails? Just wondering.

Quote from http://www.fedorafaq.org/fc1/#AlanCox:

o	System hangs reporting SCSI timeouts or at the IDE probe
	and "ide=nodma" does not help.

	If this is an Intel 440GX board, await errata news

	For other SMP boards please try "noapic"

	You may also need to set the BIOS MP to "MP 1.1" if you can
