           Summary: Startup hangs with SiI 3112 driver compiled in for some
                    time
    Kernel Version: 2.6.0-test2
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
             Owner: bzolnier@elka.pw.edu.pl
         Submitter: felix.seeger@gmx.de

Distribution: Debian unstable
Hardware Environment: Asus A7N8X Deluxe (Nforce2) with SiI 3112
Software Environment: plain 2.6.0-test2, gcc 3.3.1
Problem Description:
The driver for my SATA chip need some minutes at bootup because I don't have any devices
connected to it. It probes for disks with an timeout 3 times per disk (if I am right)
It takes way to long to startup with an SiI 3112 driver enabled kernel, but without disks
connected to it.
 
Steps to reproduce:
Build the SiI 3112 driver into the kernel
Remove both disks from the controller
Startup and wait
