I have yet to get a successful boot out of a 2.1.9* kernel. As always, I get a non-deterministic flake during or after the initialization of the BusLogic SCSI controller. The exact place varies, but it never gets as far as the "partition check" message.
This time I get a semi-repeatable oops. Here is the output (typed in by hand), followed by the ksymoops stuff. Please, if somebody can give me a hint as to how to help track this down, do tell. I would like to feel like I'll be able to run 2.2....
