That was the first thing that hit me (stood out).

compiler:
gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release)
processor choice:

Something I forgot to mention that I didn't see in any of the other
problem reports. In my case, the panic happens immediately after
"Calibrating delay loop" appears during the boot sequence.

The following fix was omitted from 2.4.3. It corrects a problem
where the mtrr code attempts to set up a region twice as large as
the user requested.
The original message appeared in linux-kernel on 14 Mar 2001.

Since I've seen a few other posts on the subject, I might as well
poke my head out of the foxhole long enough to get shot at :-).
System is a Tyan S1590S motherboard (Apollo MVP3 chipset) with
Cyrix MII 300 processor, NVIDIA GeForce2 MX AGP video card, 2.4.2
kernel, XFree86-4.0.2, and the NVIDIA
Kernel version is 2.4.1. For versions of cdrecord later than 1.6.1
(1.8.1 through the latest 1.10 alpha verified), attempting to burn a
CD results in a SCSI error of some kind. Here's some representative
output from a "dummy" burn session with cdrecord-1.9:
Calling: /usr/local/lib/xcdroast-0.9
Congratulations to all involved in fixing the subject problem. With
the 2.4.1 kernel, I can now actually use agpgart with my GeForce2 MX
on a Tyan S1590S motherboard. Just thought someone might appreciate
another data point, because prior to 2.4.1 I had to leave out agpgart
support :-(.

Dooh! Please ignore earlier bogus report of module loading

"modprobe -a". Sigh...

Maybe I missed the discussion, but why might "depmod -a" result
in every module getting installed? This didn't happen under any
of the 2.4.0-testX releases that I recall, and I ran every one of
those and the prerelease without this "trouble". Gotta say, the

The quick (not necessarily correct) fix is to back out that
portion of the linux/drivers/scsi/Makefile patch that moves
"scsi_syms.o" from line 33 to line 126.

Someone else mentioned the problem in a different context, so
this report isn't exactly new... LOTS of unresolved symbols in
several SCSI modules. Here's the list for "st.o":
scsi_unregister_module
scsi_block_when_processing_errors
scsi_release_request
scsi_do_req
scsi_allocate_request

Thought it might be worth a followup report in case anyone was
interested. All the problems I was seeing with my 2930U2 went
bye-bye when I replaced my bottom-feeder M537 VXpro motherboard
with a Tyan S1590S.
Current setup is Linux 2.4.0-test7 with the aic7xxx driver
compiled in.

I *thought* I wanted to buy some memory from Crucial :-). Can't
get there from here with my 2.4.0-test7 machine, but Win95 seems
to be ok, and 2.4.0-test5 worked ok from a different location
yesterday. Has anyone else seen this kind of thing that might shed
some light on the matter? Here's what
