I have been trying out the new 2.4.0 kernel and am unable to get
raid5 to work. When I install the raid5 module with
modprobe raid5
I get a segmentation fault and the following error appears in the dmesg output:

when I modprobe raid5 again no errors are reported and dmesg has the following
md driver 0.90.0 MAX_MD_DEVS=256, MD_SB_DISKS=27
md.c: sizeof(mdp_super_t) = 4096
raid5 personality registered
Of course raid5 cannot be compiled into the kernel since it also gives the
same error as above and dies.
Any ideas?
