Thanks to the scsi-scan one-liner posted today, I was able to upgrade
from pre8 to ac10.

I am still seeing approx 2 NMIs and 2 LOCs per timer interupt.
On each CPU.

Board is an asus p2b-ds, cpus are pii/350s at 100 fsb. Ram is
top-quality ecc, 2 @ eighth-gig dimms.

NMIs are always the same between the two cpus. LOCs have a couple ore
on cpu0 than cpu1. cpu1 gets more timer ints than cpu0. About 8% more.
In fact, all of the numbered ints have more on cpu1 except for the aic.

Unfortunately the ecc module does not compile against current kernels.
Is there any other reason for the NMIs (and LOCs) to be so high? Is
the NMI watchdog doing that? (That is compiled in.)
