It seems that the mach64 kernel moduled wasn't replaced from memory, 
causing a kernel oops. Usually you need to run install.sh without X 
running (I usually do init 3).

There shouldn't be much difference since DMA is off. (DMA at this time 
even slows things more)

mmm.. I don't see what it could be.

As said, there could be some problems with the install.sh not replacing 
everything properly. That's the more likely.

  No. There isn't any yet. But we can arrange to something be printed on 
the system log when the DMA is enabled on runtime.
