When I boot a Dell PowerEdge 2650, however, it produces similar problems trying to modprobe for aic7xxx and hangs (sorry I can't provide a trace - it never gets to mount a filesystem). It doesn't have an Adaptec SCSI card. Note that there is no problem booting with kernel-image-2.6.6-2-686-smp on either of these machines. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.7-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_GB, LC_CTYPE=en_GB This e-mail and any attachment is for authorised use by the intended recipient(s) only.
