Hi volks/Linus/Alan!

I would suggest to add this patch to the kernel tree.
It works with 2.4.18 and 2.4.18-grsec-1.9.4.

Without this I was not able to boot from my Mylex DAC960PD and
maybe someone else has this problem as well!? I guess so, because
I read about many people having problems installing Linux on an
Alpha AS1000, which normally comes with the controller mentioned
above...

Please let me know if this is OK.

Be nice if it would get in.

I also have an as1000a and an as800 with a dac960 card.  However, I'm
booting with root=3001
