This is sort of OK. What has happened here is that the '825 has an I/O
region at 0x01000000, and the P9100 has a memory region as 0x01000000.
Is it an I/O or a memory region ? Anyway the remapping in the kernel
is dangerous and something is wrong as soon as you get this kind of
message (except for the ROM). I solved the problem in my bootloader
by reallocating all PCI resources from scratch, making sure there would
never be any conflict.
Is this legal or not? The collision on address space 6 is almost
certainly the bios at 0xc0000 clashing with the one for the onboard S3
864. Since the P9100 doesn't actually have a bios in the rom socket I'm
not too worried about this :-)
Even then, it means that 2 slaves might respond to an acess at ISA memory
space at 0xc0000 if both ROMs are enabled, and cause conflicts on the bus.
The other one is definitely serious. what do /proc/ioports /proc/iomem and
/proc/pci (or lspci -vvxxx) report ?

Fair enough :-) I'll have to grab your bootloader code and have a
play...

As you can see, it's a bit of a mess! I've no idea what it thinks is in
the way of the second set of ide ports. The end address of the '825 I/O
regioin hasn't been remapped, so it clashes with the lance. The lance
and the S3 864 both have memory at 0x0? and the memory area for the 825
is right in the middle of the P9100 area. Yuck!

Wow, that's definitely a bug I had not noticed. When remapping, both the
start and end of the resource struct should be modified, else it looks
like it uses from 0x1000000 to 0x200000ff, or 512Mb - 16Mb + 256b which is
quite funny. The fix is easy: modify both the start and end of the
resource in arch/ppc/kernel/prep_pci.c in the loop with the "relocating"
message. It won't prevent conflicts from happening however...
