This is as of Friday's STABLE. The screen flies by with what looks like SCB parity error warnings. After booting /kernel.old to single user (4.1-STABLE) I can reboot and run on the /kernel -- as long as I don't power down. This is a semi-production machine... I can test patches, but the machine runs the site's backups so I'm unable to keep it down over night -- so I can put patches in and test kernels for about 8 hours/day before I've got to leave it up for the night. Any suggestions. My laptop which also had this problem is working ok now... So it may be AHC rev dependant.
