Sorry, Gerard I wasn't able to do the below yet, But You
went and released 1.17 before I could get setup to do the 1.16
tests anyway.
I'll pull a light disk activity test over night & see if the
same error jumps up to bite me again...
Ps, Another gentleman reported a problem with the same kernel &
NCR53c8xx.c that I'm using, I beleive he has a differant
controller card than mine which is the ASUS-SC200, I have not had
the trouble he was reporting on boot up.
also please see below for my dmesg.sortof....
