Subject: [gentoo-dev] "running *short* on DMA" with gentoo 1.2 whereas gentoo 1.1a is OK

1 I am trying to install gentoo-i686-1.2.iso and while executing mke2fs
2 on a 12GB SCSI partition I get :
3
4 Writing superblocks and filesystem accouting information: Warning -
5 running *really* short on DMA buffers
6 Warning - running *really* short on DMA buffers
7 Warning - running *really* short on DMA buffers
8 ...
9 etc.
10
11 The same command doesn't output any warning on gentoo-i686-1.1a.iso.
12 The gentoo 1.2 kernel flavor is surely the cause. To be more precise, it
13 is maybe the "Adaptec AIC7xxx" driver revision : 6.2.5 on 1.1a vs 6.2.6
14 on 1.2.
