Sorry for my incomplete description.But my problem is as you have guessed 
correctly using a newer Linux kernel ona 164UX system.The last kernel which 
works for me on the 164UX is 2.6.22.Have tried newer versions (2.6.27 and 
2.6.31) on a 164LX with Alphabios whichwork correctly.This means it is not 
mandatory to use SRM Console with newer Linux kernels.The 164UX has 
unfortunately ARCSBIOS only.All my trials ended with kernel panic.Below the end 
of the message log:Major devices are: ramdisk (0001) fd (0002) ide0 (0003) sd 
(0008) sd (0041) sd (
