Christian Steigies provided the 2.6.7 kernel under test. You can download
it from the link in his post:

    http://lists.debian.org/debian-68k/2004/08/msg00069.html

I'd be very interested in the results on the Quadra 840AV. I would advise
that you boot carefully, since there are probably still ADB issues, though
I haven't heard of any test results on machines with CUDA ADB.

You may want to try booting single user with root read only. I say that
because the ADB problems with 2.6.7 on a Q650 occur after root is mounted.
