Is there any other information I can provide?

I also seem to have a problem running 2.4.3 (official and ac1-6) kernels
without K7 optimizations, it locks up under I/O using several interrupts (no
IDE involved). I'll post a message about it when I can keep it up long enough
to get debugging information.
