well..  I just did... I'm still running 2.2.1-R, but I did run the latest
bt848 driver on XF3.3... but it still crashed...  it did take a while
longer to lock up the bt946 (my scsi controler) than before...  before
just a small amount of disk activity would lock up the bus, but not
it took it a ls -lR a while (about 5+ seconds) before it locked up...

right now I'm looking at upgrading to 2.2.2-R and see if that will help
any...    if I had another scsi controler, I'd try that... hmm.  I could
dig up an old NCR 53c400 based controler, I'll see what I can do...

ttyl..
