dab47a31f42a23d2b374e1cd7d0b797e8e08b23d was both good and bad

What is the proper method to do a bisect between 2.6.15 and 2.6.16?

You need to do the bisect start after you cd into the linux-git 
directory.   Also, it appears you have the good and bad reversed,
presumably the newer (v2.6.16) is bad, and the older (v.2.6.15)
is good.
