Re: RTL2.2 and aic7xxx

  Sorry, but I got to ask it again. I need rt and I can't
go back to 2.0.x
  Does anybody have any idea what this might be?

   Kernel panic: aic7xxx: AWAITING_MSG for an SCB that does
      not have a waiting message.                                              
 
  Thanks,

    Guilherme
