Is there something special I need to do to boot 2.6.14 on SGI
altix machine?  I took 7 day old 2.6.14.2 kernel source, and
did the following:

cp arch/ia64/config/sn2_defconfig .config
make oldconfig
make vmlinux

And it resulted with a bug check at very early stage of boot.
The boot log says:

Linux version 2.6.14.2 (root@linux-sgi) (gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-24)) #3 SMP Thu Nov 17 19:25:56 PST 2005

2.6.12 boots just fine with the default sn2 config file.
