I get following panic on 2.6.20-rc4-mm1 on a 2-cpu AMD Opteron system.

Same basic config file seems to work with 2.6.20-rc2-mm1 on this same

Attached are config file and "lspci -vv" output. Let me know if you need
more info.

Hi,

I believe this is one of the bugs that is fixed in the patch that I sent monday. Please try again with the patch applied to your tree and re-test. Thanks. I didn't see Andrew merge the patch yet.

I can mail the patch if you can't find it. Just ping me privately.

Cheers,

Auke
