Hello volodya,

I found the answer to the problem today.  It has to do with a bug in
one of these options:

CONFIG_TULIP_MWI
CONFIG_TULIP_MMIO

Since the system is a older dual p100 I didn't really want to sit
through the 2 hours of compilation to "test" which one it is.  I'm
willing to bet its CONFIG_TULIP_MWI though since its still marked as
experimental.  With both of these options disabled 2.4.9 works fine on
that system though as it does on my other boxes.  Whoever maintains
the code for those two config options might want to do some testing.
I can provide more information about the system if needed.
