I just can't seem to win, if it's not one bug... it's another.. oi. After
3 day uptime (longest I've had in weeks) on my Squid cache server... I got
this:

SCSI disk error : host 0 channel 0 id 0 lun 0 return code = 2603000

Kernel panic : aic7xxx: AWAITING_MSG for an SCB that does not have a
waiting message.

In swapper task - not synching.

Was the aic7xxx driver in this pre kernel replaced with one from the
development kernels?

Can anyone recommend a stable kernel? I've tried everything... 2.1.9x's
have networking problems. 2.0.33 has that malloc bug so my machine hangs
every day. 2.0.30-32 have networking hassles.

I've replaced all of my hardware because I initially thought it was a
hardware problem. I've replaced my kernel 5 times and I can't get this box
to run for more than 3 days without crashing. The funny thing is that if I
stop running Squid, this machine will run for 8 months without so much
as skipping a beat (it has)...
