Just tried it with 2.4.10-pre10: sym53c8xx and aic7xxx loaded as module ==> "cat /proc/partitions" gives infinite output (and my /dev/hda does not show up at all).

I have a BusLogic BT-958 (compiled in), pas16 (module), and usb-storage (module). The problem shows up with only the BusLogic scsi device, and the other modules not loaded. (And it also shows up with 2 or more scsi drivers loaded) Note that on this machine the pas16 and usb-storage modules *were* installed, I removed them, and /proc/partitions still looped.
