To follow my own message about lockups on UP1100.  This time I tried
to boot 2.4.1-ac1.  Results are really the same but this time
an attempt to copy kernel source from a partition on a SCSI drive
to another one on an IDE drive brought different message.  I include
it below.

When trying to immediatly reboot with this kernel a machine locks
up in the middle of fsck.  Luckily 2.2.18 does not have problems with
that or other disk operations for that matter.

Here is what I collected in logs this time before a machine went "poof".

BTW - on a target disk there are no traces that somebody attempted to
copy something.
