Thanks. Erm... not exactly what I had expected.

Could you return to 2.6.8-rc4-mm1 + 8139too-mm-revert.patch and try each
of the three patches attached ?

I.e.:
- apply patch #1
- boot test (success/crash)
- revert patch #1
- apply patch #2
- boot test (success/crash)
- revert patch #2
- apply patch #3
- boot test (success/crash)
- revert patch #3
