Hi,
Maybe it would be a good idea to fix or revert the hp100 patch
that went into 2.6.3 :
----------------------------------------------------------
# modprobe hp100
FATAL: Error inserting hp100 (/lib/modules/2.6.3/kernel/drivers/net/hp100.ko):

# dmesg

---------------------------------------------------------------
After that, the whole system is mostly unusable and doesn't
reboot cleanly.
This is with a PCI card. Looking at the changes, they would
also require testing with a ISA card (which I don't have in my box at
the moment).
2.6.2 works perfectly. This is what 2.6.2 looks like :
---------------------------------------------
hp100: eth1: Busmaster mode enabled.
hp100: eth1: HP J2585B at 0xf400, IRQ 16, PCI bus, 32k SRAM (rx/tx 75%).

Have fun...
