Just for the amusement value, have you tried the lask-known-working kernel and see if it still works right? If one of my systems started throwing errors like that I'd be checking the CPU, cache, and memory; most likely with memtest86 to start.... And yes, I'm serious, memory can just go bad out of the blue. Maybe just swap memory with a functional system and see if the oops differs or goes away. Worth a thought at the very least. I hope this helps! If not, at least it can't hurt. :-) Diamon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Black" <mblack@csihq.com> To: "linux-kernel" <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>; "raid" <linux-raid@vger.kernel.org> Cc: "John Graves" <jgraves@csihq.com> Sent: Saturday, March 23, 2002 6:14 AM Subject: Re: 2.4.19-pre4 aic7xxx problems > > Tried 2.4.16 -- similar (but not quite the same ) oops.
