Seen on Apple PowerBook G3 (Lombard) with OSL 11.0 (final) also Gentoo Linux 2006.1 In particular: 1. Booting with "reserve=0xfd000000,0xffffff" manages a sort-of fix but 2. (quoting #17 in above thread): from dmesg: pcmcia: parent PCI bridge Memory window: 0xfd000000 - 0xfdffffff means the PCI host bridge is configured to allow "downstream" devices to use this memory area. However, when the PCMCIA socket tries to do so, you get the machine check. So my question would be to the powerpc folks: why is the PCI host bridge configured this way, even if this memory area is not usable?
