hi kernelList, i readed this thread and had the hope that it will fix my problem. i have an older quad 166Mhz ppro machine with an intel mainbord. it runs only with kernel command NOAPIC. tried kernels from 2.2.15 to 2.4.0-test9. with apic, it will boot till init of the first adaptecController 7860 (aic7xxx) and then loops with scsibus resets attached is the output of lspci -vvv thx in advance stefan -- stefan mojschewitsch
