(HP Colorado T4000s)


Apon booting 2.6.5-rc2-bk1, during detection of the SCSI tape drive, the
kernel panics

The backtrace is:

st_probe
__lockup_hash
dput
sysfs_create_dir
bus_match
driver_match
kobject_register
bus_add_driver
driver_register
init_st
do_initcalls
init
init
kernel_thread_helper

Is this known? I will revert to my previous kernel 

Shawn.
