First of all, can you boot a kernel without the PAS driver configured?

How do you know that the kernel has recognized your PAS?  If it's
because it died after printing something like:

pas0 at isa0 port 0x220 irq 7 drq 1: ...

then the problem probably lies with whatever device is probed after
the PAS.  We'd have to see ioconf.c to find out which driver is
guilty.
