Hi,

A dual AMD opteron processor machine works fine with 2.6.12-3 kernel and 3ware
drivers (2.26.03.015fw - release.).
Updating the kernel to 2.6.16.20, retaining the same 3ware driver and having
virtually the same kernel config as in 2.6.12-3 leads to the following
messages at boot:

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Any idea wdummy this could mean?
