I attempted to fix the missing NIC problem a while back. It is due to
improper PCIe configuration. While the fix worked, there is some evidence it
is responsible for a new legacy USB boot fail problem.

I am not familiar with this problem. It is likely the interrupt routing is
not reported correctly though.

The serial port logging is turned off because I was using that image for
fast boot testing. Boot from hardware reset to DOS prompt using an SSD drive
takes 600 or 700 ms as I remember. You could use the patch to recreate the
source code and then enable logging.

I believe with this image, the IDE interface is hidden and only the AHCI
interface at device 11h is visible. This was done because Windows boot is
slowed greatly by an IDE interface unless all drive positions are populated.
So be sure to enable AHCI when building SeaBIOS.
