        Hello,

        I'm currently using a 6500 PowerMac with a NewerTech G3L2 300/200
Upgrade card. When the card is activated using kernel version 2.2.15 there
is a loss of the Hda interrupt and will continue to display in sequence
hda1, hda2, hda3, etc with no activity apparent with the Hard Drive. Using
kernel version 2.2.6-15a doesnt have this problem. I would like to use
kernel version 2.2.15 if possible. Is this a known problem and is there a
fix??? Also note with the G3 card disabled the problem is not present, but
since the upgrade card is installed in the cache slot running it disabled
results in a very slow machine.

        Robert
