No, I'm only using the aic7xxx driver for an aha2940.
I'm neeeeeeeeearly sure that the Makefile in arch/i386/boot is wrong on line 28
I think it should be
$(OBJDUMP) $(OBJDUMP_FLAGS) -o $(BZIMAGE_OFFSET) and not
$(OBJDUMP) $(OBJDUMP_FLAGS) -o $(IMAGE_OFFSET)
I do know that changing it to BZIMAGE_OFFSET produces a bootable kernel - I'm
using it right now (2.1.7). I'm puzzled by why this works for everyone else.

mikeg:# objdump --version
GNU objdump version 2.7
mikeg:# ld --version
ld version 2.7 (with BFD 2.7.0.3)
I think that these are the latest/greatest.
Cheers,
Mike
