Re: problems with new kernel

I have this same problem on my AlphaStation 200 (Mustang, but uses
Avanti kernel type) on RH5.1.

When I load using MILO, the kernel boots, then prints
"device_interrupt: unexpected interrupt X" over and over again. I am
forced to reboot, as the kernel boot doesn't even continue.

If I boot straight from SRM, using RedHat avanti-s image,
everything works beautifully. (this is how I boot now)

Any solutions?
