Hi Ben,
it does not happen with 2.2 at all. I think there was a change in the
driver before 2.4.8-ben0. This is the first kernel I tried which
actually reports the error. Before that I had 2.4.7-ben0 and
2.4.6-pre8 which were crashing without anything reported. I guess it
was caused by the disc as well as the crash was accompanied by the
sound of repeated access to a faulty floppy disc.
