That was long....
I bought laptop some time ago, mainly to use it with linux. And it
didn't install. As I've already written it stopped during PCI probing so I
decided to build custom kernel on another machine with pci disabled. It
worked. At this point I decided to investigate a little and was able to
find offending device - it is PCI to PCI bridge with id 1039:5107. As I
understand there is a function in pci.c called scan_bus and this is
recursive function called for each bridge found. In my case top level call
(I suppose it called for host to PCI bridge) is OK, but this function
hangs when called for bridge mentioned earlier. My guess is that this
bridge is used as bridge between laptop's bus and bus in docking station.
And I don't use it.
I don't remeber where exactly it hung but I think it was inside first
call to pcibios_read_config_byte from scan_bus.
I developed quick and dirty fix for it - it just skips recursive call to
scan_bus for offending bridge:

unsigned short cr;
I suppose it will work fine as long as you don't want to use docking
station...
And one more thing - I can't tell a lot about my laptop. It's produced
in Taiwan as model 6200T and was bought in the UK as PICO 6200. It is also
available here as AJP 6200 and I saw some other names I don't remember.
That was quite long... Sorry for that. If you want to have a look at
this and need more information or want me to test something - send me
email to: tomkep@globalnet.co.uk (during weekend, I don't check this
account on daily bases) or etltkki@etl.ericsson.se (mon-fri).
