No Problems. Had both USB and Sound disabled. - I then Downloaded them again, this time via an ftp-Server I set-up on the machine that also hosts the NFS-shares, and stored them locally. No Problems. Had both NFS and Sound enabled. - Started AmaroK, tuned in to Idobi 128-bit, downloaded the three Files again from the local Server. That time, after a few MB of the first CD, I got a: May 6 17:04:56 beaster kernel: Interrupt storm detected on "irq22:"; throttling interrupt source After that the sound-card produced weird noise so I rebootet the machine. I will keep trying with the NIC-Interrupt Storm...
