Hi Jeff,

Looking at the boot log before the kernel oops, I suspected it to be the ide driver causing
the kernel oops, I am trying reproduce the crash with debug info compiled into the kernel.

[    2.236136] Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver
[    2.248211] ide-pmac 0001:03:0d.0: enabling device (0014 -> 0016)
