  I am trying to install gentoo-i686-1.2.iso and while executing mke2fs 
on a 12GB SCSI partition I get :

Writing superblocks and filesystem accouting information: Warning - 
running *really* short on DMA buffers
Warning - running *really* short on DMA buffers
Warning - running *really* short on DMA buffers
...
etc.

  The same command doesn't output any warning on gentoo-i686-1.1a.iso. 
The gentoo 1.2 kernel flavor is surely the cause. To be more precise, it 
is maybe the "Adaptec AIC7xxx" driver revision : 6.2.5 on 1.1a vs 6.2.6 
on 1.2.
