Thanks for the confirmation of the error condition. As best I can recall, your boot log is substantially the same as what I saw. Finally got back in town. Starting the git-bisect process. I've got a relatively slow network connection, and the PWS 433au isn't exactly what I would call "fast" by modern standards, so bear with me while I get things set up and crank through this. The clone of the 2.6 tree will take several more hours to finish downloading. I anticipate the best pace I'll be able to manage after that is two iterations in a 24- hour period. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bob Tracy | "They couldn't hit an elephant at this dist- " rct@xxxxxxxx | - Last words of Union General John Sedgwick, | Battle of Spotsylvania Court House, U.S. Civil War ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-scsi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
