Hey

This maybe a problem else where and not to do with smp but at the moment
I'm getting some serious phantom loads.  below is a load of only 1 but I
have seen higher up to 3 or 4 with the same cpu usage

   4:25pm  up 15 days,  7:59,  8 users,  load average: 1.00, 1.02, 1.00
105 processes: 104 sleeping, 1 running, 0 zombie, 0 stopped
CPU states:  0.3% user,  2.5% system,  0.0% nice, 97.2% idle
Mem:  517096K av, 500636K used,  16460K free,  54520K shrd, 271000K buff
Swap: 130028K av,   1468K used, 128560K free                156332K
cached

now It has been suggested by a member of the local LUG that it is quite
possibly a scsi driver problem.  the box has a very low uptime value. 
this is longest it has had in a long time.

the unfortunate problem I have (other than the box crashing every
fortnight) is that I can't save any oopses because any oopses I do get
seem to crash to box totally so the only course of action is a power
cycle. ie no console

The board is an ASUS dual PII with adaptec AIC-7880 on board and a
ncr53c875j in suplement.  the kernel has both ncr53c and sym53c options
compile in.

the box is currently running 2.2.5 but has a 2.2.7 waiting to go next
crash

any hints to increasing stability of this box would be greately
appreciated

Cheers
Craig
