To all whom it may concern:
I am having trouble with several of the 2.6 kernels. The last one is
the one that is perhaps most annoying.
I have a dual Opteron based NFS server that keeps crashing when I try to
boot up with 2.6.11-rc4.
The node is trying to boot from an mptbase device, and it is also
loading modules for a qlogic fiber card (module is qla2300, qla2xxx, and
the scsi_transport_fc). Now, as it is scanning the drives, it does a
perfect impersonation of a dying duck and crashes.
Here is the output from the crash:'

<0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
Has anyone seen this in this kernel? 2.6.7 - 2.6.10 has not had a
problem booting, but there has been other problems that are forcing us
to move up to a newer kernel (2.6.7 has stability issues, 2.6.9 had some
interesting issues with our IBM servers and USB keyboards (complete
lockups), and I had problems with kswapd on 2.6.7 - 2.6.10).
Thanks for any help you may be able to shed on this problem. Please CC
me. I was on the kernel list, but I think my company has blocked that
email due to the volume of the traffic.

Hi!
Did you change some configuration options or did add/remove hardware?
