I'm booting 2.6.12 with the d-i netboot install image, and since there's
no network, it's not downloaded the disk drivers yet. If you really need
to know if sym53c8xx loads ok, I can make a custom netboot image that
includes the module and try to load it though..

Sorry, didn't realize the log was quite that broken. Here's a better
one. Unfortunatly, without a network (and no CD drive on my a500 either),
I'm limited to copy and paste.

Here for comparison are the lines after tulip for 2.6.8:

tulip0: no phy info, aborting mtable build
tulip0:  MII transceiver #1 config 1000 status 782d advertising 01e1.

I can also give out remote access to this machine including the console
BTW.
