Ok, the kernel that I now have booting is 2.6.17-rc5-mm2 + my pata_pdc2027x patch + the 3 hotfixes that I saw when I started trying to build the kernel (i.e. without git-scsi-target-fixup but with the other 3 that are now present).
During boot of my Debian sarge system, this kernel always gives this warning at "Starting MTA:" http://static.flickr.com/47/158326090_35d0129147_b_d.jpg
Then, a minute or two after boot, it usually (well over 50% of the time, but not quite 100%) gives this oops: http://static.flickr.com/51/158326091_6a7057834c_b_d.jpg
If it doesn't fail with that oops, it usually tends to fail with other oopses (I have not managed to capture any of those, but they all seem to mention network-related stuff). Once, it just froze up without an oops. The oops I posted happens often enough that it's probably unjustifiably difficult to try reproducing the other oopses until this one is fixed or worked around.
I plan to try 2.6.17-rc5-mm1 + mingo's latest lockdep patch for that kernel + a properly fixed-up pata_pdc2027x, to see whether that kernel fails the same way; I've built it but I won't have a chance to test it for another 3-6 hours. -- -Barry K.
