It would cause problems for me. Perhaps it is an issue of XFS filesystem
patches, rather than the regular kernel, I don't know what it modifies
relative to aic7xxx. But so far all of my recent test kernels will fail
to complete boot correctly if rebuild fir
g chosen without it being specified anywhere else. I
think this will end up just being one of those mysteries, and the boot
software coder will have to find some non-trivial workaround. It sounds
like the /lib/i686/ path was hardcoded in the linker when it was
compiled, which means there are no
starts
normally, then hangs in what seems like a controller or filesystem
failure of a scsi drive, try to enable the option.
(this would give some hint about debugging an aic7xxx failure,
regardless of error messages)

It still remains to be seen how it is that /lib/i686/libc.so.6 is used
