Hello again,

I tried changing BIOS settings to various systems, even exotic ones
like "DOS", "NT" and "Banyan VINES".
All of them made 2.1.107/SMP panic, looks like this
problem is more serious than I
initially thought and thus requires serious debugging.

Don't forget I have got a P08 BIOS revision which was only released a few
days ago and the whole thing looks quite new.

I discovered "panic=XX" option which allows to auto-reboot after panic.
However, I need some "panic_dump=/dev/sda_some_hidden_partition" option
which will allow me to later one analyse the panic buffer and see what's
wrong.

Failing that I will have to debug it the hard way... :)

Regards,
