8-STABLE doesn't work for me. The ethernet device is not recognized, and I get warnings about interrupt storms on irq19 (atapci1), which I don't see with 8-RELEASE. That might be a matter of missing diagnostics in the release kernel (the numbers from 'vmstat -i' seem to suggest this).

The board is an Intel DH55HC with an i3-530. Sources for -STABLE checked out this morning; I simply built a GENERIC kernel.
