Same error here, from 18h old -CURRENT.  Asus TX97 MB and Quantum
Fireball SE (4.3GB).  Thankfully my disk seems ok (I didn't write
anything to that disk with the bad kernel).

My last kernel was from 5 July, so I can't narrow the gap any.  I tried
a kernel with 0x80ff flags, and it wouldn't see my keyboard (although I
did a quick rebuild, so that might be pilot error.)

Regards,
 -Jeremy
