c0194d36<isapnp_proc_attach_device+36/94>Do you have any ISAPNP cards in your system?
Yes, a Soundblaster AWE64 that has never given me any problems. I tried booting
test10 and test1 with that card pulled, and they both still oopsed on boot.
Jeff, I recompiled test10 with all kernel ISA PNP options disabled, and it successfully
booted. But I also upgraded binutils to ver 2.10, (which I know is bad for for bug
hunting, but I wanted to get this system up ASAP). So I guess the conclusion to draw is that there *may* be a bug in the kernel ISA PNP code. In any event, this no longer appears to be a problem for me (assuming I get the user PNP stuff to work), and no one else has reported this problem (that I am aware of). Many thanks for your insights.
