Actually, he already posted this information -- he's got an
AS200/233 with the on-board ncr810:

Apr 13 16:16:21 nikita /kernel: AlphaStation 200/400 ("Avanti")
Apr 13 16:16:21 nikita /kernel: AlphaStation 200 4/233, 233MHz
<...>
Apr 13 16:16:21 nikita /kernel: ncr0: <ncr 53c810 fast10 scsi> port 0x10000-0x100ff mem 0x8200c000-0x8200c0ff irq 11 at device 6.0 on pci0


If its anything like the 810 in my AS200/166 (and I suspect it is),
its too old for the sym driver.

I think the ncr driver was actually innocent for once & that it was
just complaining because the bus disappeared out from under it.  This, 
in turn, was caused by whatever generated the machine check (probably
the nic, given the icmp flood).
