Ilguiz,
Both patches are now working great on both the faster PC and the P133 system.
I finally figured out what is going on with Grub not working on a P133
system: The grub_firmware produced on a Debian system (gcc 2.95.4) works
fine on both machines; grub_firmware from a Gentoo system (gcc 2.95.3) works
on the faster PC, but not on the P133.

My apologies for misunderstanding your earlier post. Your latest change puts
the manufacturer/id code where I had intended it to be; I goofed on the
offset value in the original patch.
It's my understanding that these DoC 2000/Millennium patches will soon be
incorporated into the official Grub sources. Until then, if anyone else is
interested in trying the latest patches, here's a summary:
GRUB CVS: http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=grub
Patch: grub-2002-07-29-doc.patch (MTD cvs)
On a Debian system, use:
aclocal-1.6 && automake-1.6 --add-missing && autoconf2.50
GRUB 0.92: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-0.92.tar.gz
Patch: grub-0.92-doc.patch (MTD cvs)
Instructions:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2002-June/005240.html
(With these patches, use "--enable-diskonchip-mil" for all DoC Millenniums)
