Hi,
I'll add some noise to this. I have a PowerMac8600 (with a 750GX in it
(in case that makes a difference)) and I can't boot 2.6.36 if it is
compiled with a gcc version newer than 4.1.2. Both 4.2.4 and 4.3.5
will hang. 4.1.2 seems ok.

Hello,
Some time ago (July 24th 2009 my mailbox says) I emailed you and the
linuxppc-dev list about my problems booting from the mesh SCSI controller.
I just compiled 2.6.31 (actually, gentoo-sources-2.6.31-r10); but the
problem remains
I know that 2.6.33 is out, but as I didn't see any chang

In the meantime, maybe Fujita has an idea ?

My boot drive is on the internal "mesh" SCSI-controller. Self-compiled
kernel 2.6.29 is running fine for quite some time.
However, after compiling 2.6.30 (with more or less the same
