Hi Krzysztof,
There have been lots of changes to the DMA system (git bisect is not
viable form my working 2.6.22 kernel as the dma changes kill the build for
over half the posible commits to check). It could be a side effect of
these changes.
For me, a non-functional lance is a show stopper as my kernels are all
tested using an NFS root. No network means no root ... :(
I am setting up an ext2 partition at the moment. It should alow me do some
testing without any network but it will be a dificult setup to test as I
have not tries running up an nfs server on my linux-sparc setup yet so
getting the files setup will take several reboots to different OS/OS
Versions.
Regards
Mark Fortescue.

I have just booted the 2.6.32-rc1-git4 (which differs from yours by only 3 IA64 patches) on SS20
with UP kernel and Aurora 3. The SMP kernel boots but it crashes when storage is
initialized (I try tracking this down).
Update: this is not storage, but sunlance.ko module. Loading this module ends with message:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ef7dc000
and more messages about MMU until the linux hangs.
I have the second lance chip on the SBUS 10Mbit + SCSI card (I don't know the name). I'll do more tests tomorrow.
Regards,
Krzysztof
PS. Everything works ok with UP kernel.
