Re: scsi emulation: atapi reset irq timeout and other nasties...
i'm running kernel 2.4.22 as well. i read somewhere that it could also be
because i'm using the latest gcc in sid to compile my kernel, but that was
a forum on test releases of the kernel and (2.4.22 is at least in theory
stable). thoughts? i really would rather downgrade my gcc than my kernel.
