Hello

I'm using Debian testing/unstable on a box with TokenRing networking.
With kernels up to 2.6.8.1 everything was fine.

I tried kernel 2.6.9, but when dhclient runs ifconfig, I get a kernel
oops from the olympic module (see attachments oops-olympic-1 and
config-1).

I've recompiled the kernel with various (aimlessly picked) debugging
options activated, the resulting oops is attached as oops-olympic-2
and config-2.

Both oopses were logged by booting with "init=/bin/sh" (thus the unset
hostname) to bypass my startup scripts that run dhclient.  Before
running /etc/init.d/networking (which triggers dhclient) I've piped
the output from "lsmod" and "ifconfig -a" through logger to be
included in the syslog.

Please have a look at this.  I'll try to give more information when
needed, just tell me what's missing.

Regards,
Christian
