Gregory's Serverso i can confirm this by disabling the output driver (pin 12 of U37) for ARB1, which will allow it to remain high, so U26 will drive a 2 on the bus instead of a 0.
a little soldering work and a small piece of kapton tape, and i think we are ready.

 ohh yeah, 90MHz! well, technically, 99MHz (the oscillator is 66MHz instead of 60MHz).  strangely enough, when i connect my other type 4 complex (a 486DX2-66), i get the same DMA timeout error, so this "fix" is definitely a hack and doesn't really fix the root cause. (i've already disconnected all the logic analyzer cables, so i'll have to look at it some other time.) @tubetime always felt weird that even on IBM hardware that supports it, that OS/2 cant do an ACPI soft shutdown. Even OS/2 4.52  @tubetime Half a warped OS... The whole IBM fumbling the Star Trek thing with OS/2 and the Warp name silliness was pretty amusing. |
and the logic analyzer confirms that, with this mod, we're seeing a 2 on the bus even though U26 is bugging and trying to drive a 0.
