I caught that oops when trying 2.4.21-pre2, the oops clearly occurs when
the ide-tape module is unloaded. When ide-tape is compiled in the kernel
everything is fine. Despite that oops the corrections on ide-tape are
just fine,
i couldn't get 2.4.x kernel working correctly with tape drive(Oops and host
completly frozen, no serial console), and now i have no more problem.
Host is a Compaq ML350, but same thing occurs with DL380. Oops occurs in
both
SMP and UP environments.
Pertinant part of dmesg(ide-tape in kernel):
>Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00beta-2.4
