| Subject: | IP22 and lots of memory |

Some SGI IP22 systems which have more than a certain critical amount of memory will overwrite firmware data structures which will result in a crash when the sgiseeq Ethernet driver initializes. With the 32-bit kernel the critical amount of memory is somewhere between 128mb and 192mb of memory; for the 64-bit kernel just half of it. This will be fixed in 2.3.23. Ralf |
