[LinuxBIOS] PCI information changed when linuxbios is used

[Frank Samuel]

Dear all, 

I made an Iwill/DK8S2 machine run on LinuxBIOS. But I
noticed that pci information shown by lspci changed a
lot. Is this normal? 

Here i post the pci information before and after
linuxbios is used. 

when factory-build bios is used, the results of lspci
are:

>From the above, IDE interface, ethernet intefrace and
usb interface belongs to different buses before and
after using linuxbios. This is surprising. Could
someone provide some advices? 

Thanks.
