Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
In interrupt handler - not syncing

What's also interesting is when i turned off the A7M266-D before, i got a
spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7 spewage, when i turned it back ON the IBM
paniced (as above).

Russel, the patch DID work but you cant use minicom under X to use sysrq (i
could use the command from the IBM console and it did dump the output over
serial so it worked).
