I have a Tyan S1668 mboard, eepro100 fast ethernet and BT-958 Buslogic
SCSI card. This setup works well with an SMP kernel 2.0.*
Trying to use a 2.2.* kernel with no SMP works, trying to use a 2.2.*
kernel with SMP leads to various deadly problems.
With kernel 2.2.2-5, eepro100.c version 1.06 I immediately get error
messages like

Loading the kernel with the option "noapic" (using lilo) leads to a
problem with the SCSI controller driver, a hang with repeated messages
to the screen about the driver being succesfully initialized.
Any suggestions about how to either
1. Get the ethernet driver to work?
2. Get the SCSI controller driver to work with noapic?
