HP netservers

Are anyone running series 2.1 kernels successfully on a HP Netserver?
We have some LX-Pro4 and LXrPro8 machines, and their behave
consistently like this: 2.1.xx kernels hangs or dies violently during
kernel boot, apparently while scanning the PCI bus. These machines
have two PCI buses, which might confuse the kernel? The configuration
of PCI-cards is different (different SCSI, NIC etc.).
On version 2.0.33 (and probably also 31 and 32) the kernel boots, but
(if running with SMP) it usually hangs with a message "deadlock
detected by cpu XX" after a few minutes with heavy load. Kernel 2.0.30
works fine.
It'd be nice to have 2.2 able to run on these boxes..
