Andrea,
I've tried using this kernel on a dual atlon MP system using a Tyan thunder K7
board and two athlon MP 1900's. When it goes to load the kernel image the system
just reboots. I'm using the exact same .config as I used with 2.4.20pre5aa1,
which worked fine. If you need any more information I'll be glad to provide it.
