Hi,

I can very reliably kill system by using kerneld managed cdu31a. It
survives excactly one usage. After kerneld unloads cdu31a module any attempt
to access the drive ( which should just load the module back ) hangs the
system. No oops, no panics, nothing.... it just dies.

Linux bach.cis.temple.edu 2.0.10 #4 Wed Jul 31 18:44:51 EDT 1996 i486
It is i476DX2/66 with 40Mb RAM, 1542 scsi, cdu31a.
modules 2.0, gcc 2.7.2, libc 5.2.18

I really do not feel like compiling the cdu31a into kernel :(

Best wishes,
Alex
