i can't boot from latest livecd (autobuild) because i get a kernel oops with via_init_one failure my mainboard has a "VIA VT6415" chip connected to the ide-cdrom with the install-cd the install-cd use the kernel 2.6.34-gentoo-r12 so i found this on http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/snapshots/patch-2.6.35-git11.log commit 2a800b7bd926c739c07c1690579f03bbd6f1b5a3 Author: Yann Dirson <ydirson@altern.org> Date: Sun Jul 18 16:11:06 2010 -0700 via82cxxx: fix typo for VT6415 PCIE PATA IDE Host Controller support. Without this fix, init of the via82cxxx driver causes a oops with a stack resembling the one below, and the boot blocks between init of USB devices and launch of init (was easy to bisect by booting with init=/bin/sh).

@kernel: Any chance of getting a backport of this to the 2.6.34 kernel series or when do you expect us to have a stable 2.6.35 or later kernel marked stable?
Actually we already have a stable 2.6.35 kernel for x86 and amd64 should be done soon.
As we got new kernel versions marked stable, I expect this to be fixed. Feel free to reopen the bug if you hit this again.
