[LinuxBIOS] Televideo TC7020 successfully booted with LinuxBiosV2 --- NOT!

Hi again,

It was too early to say success! Sorry!!
None of devices are working although the boot process reached
the user land -- drivres could not obtain IRQs of the devices.

Attached is a boot log.  I loaded a 686 kernel by mistake but it's
nothing to do with the IRQ problem, I guess.

I'm looking into PCI configuration. It must be different from eaglelion/5bcm.

Yes, I will write a HOWTO with photos about the porting experience.
