RE: 2.4.[35] + Dell Poweredge 8450 + Oops on boot

[Terry Katz]

Just before I got your suggestion, I tried just that (disabling the PNP
Bios) .. I looked up the trace addresses in the system.map (which I
forgot to include) and saw that it was from the pnp bios) .. It did the
trick :)  I will also see if there's an updated bios available .. 

Thanks!
