I've tried using IRQ 11 for the first and IRQ 12 for the second and leaving
the 'conflicts' keyword _OUT_ of the second device line, but I have the same
exact problem.  The kernel probes the bus on each adaptor correctly, and
then continues correctly until the end of the device probing, but locks up
before doing anything else.
