Greetings fellow gatelings,
My putback to fix:
6472670 Internal pci bus numbering should be independent of
bios enumeration order (for non-x8400 systems)
repairs an issue with internal PCI-bus unit-addresses which can render
some systems unbootable after adding or removing a PCI card with a PCI-PCI
bridge (if your system suffers from this issue, you're most likely already
painfully aware of it).
In order to enable this fix, you'll need to perform a fresh installation of
an NV build after today; until then, your system will continue to behave as
it always has through BFU+acr and upgrade/live-upgrade.
If you BFU+acr across this change, you can stop reading now.
If you normally use Cap-I Install, you'll need to BFU+acr across this
change.
Enjoy the weekend -
Dana
