I got the following boot-time message twice recently with 2.1.106,
in about 20 successful boots. Never had this before with any previous kernel.
I have made no config changes since 2.1.8x, 2.1.9x. 2.1.10x, etc etc.
Any comments appreciated....

ps= machine is PPro 200, 2940 SCSI controller, boot disk is 4.2 GB on sda
