Good morning kernel hackers,

networks. The systems in the IPv6 only networks do not need any IPv4

why do you think redirecting *all* output to /dev/null is the right
thing todo?
And which problem does it exactly fix?
Do you see that there is a difference between a "return value"

The problem is solved, if I disconnect the hp streamer

The aic7880 has two busses:

The ibm hard disk is connected to the uw port and is terminated.
No other uw device is attached.
