The ISA and PCI compatability shims have been connected to the
|
|
options COMPAT_OLDISA and COMPAT_OLDPCI. If you are using old
|
|
style PCI or ISA drivers (i.e. tx, voxware, etc.) you must
|
|
include the appropriate option in your kernel config. Drivers
|
|
using the shims should be updated or they won't ship with
|
|
5.0-RELEASE, targeted for 2001.

|
|

|
|
Before reporting kernel panics, make sure that all modules
|
|
that you are loading are up to date.
