Actually I tested 2.4.19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 26 and 2.6.5 and 7 and all from 
2.4.21 on fail. All kernels compiled for SMP, but the system only has one CPU 
(second CPU is waiting for the IDE problem to tracked down...)

I have triggered a compile of all pre and rc version between 2.4.20 and 2.4.21 
and will do narrow it down tomorrow. (I know I'll probably need only 3 or 4 
of those kernels, but having them all available will make testing easier...
