problem booting kernels 456 459

[hab]

This is with an ASUS A7N8X-E Deluxe mother board with Maxtor drives 
hooked to the SATA controller.  Your default config with these kernels
causes some type of driver conflict resulting in a Disk hang and failure
to complete bootup.  linux-ide list suggested that I don't include the
siimage driver.  I tried this but it didn't clear the problem.

I have successfully built and use 2.6.7 bk12 but if I apply your
.config even with siimage removed it still won't boot.

Thanks
