Does 2.4.6 fail ?

Crashed doing FPU setup

Your boot CPU ends "cmov mmx" (ie Pentium II)

And the second processor has fxsr (ie SSE - preventium III)

It looks like that is tripping a bug that got re-introduced in 2.4.6 or
2.4.7 (hence I asked which failed). That would explain why there haven't
been millions of reports

I've tested more now

It spits one of these msgs during the init script... but continues on
2.4.5 SMP

But on 2.4.7UP + ac6 + the promise driver enabled it works like a charm
if I go back to 2.2.19 it still works like a charm.. Time to  test more
tho.. I still cannot make the kernel see my raid drive .. since I've
raided the 4 disks in bios to 1 large drive.. it stil shows me 4 drives
all being 75GB.. wierd ?

That's with 2.4.5 but it continues..

Gonna try 2.4.4 and 2.4.6 now

2.2.19 still works

Mvh, 

Arnvid Karstad,

Problems with 2.4.7-ac6 + SMP + FastTrak100

[Arnvid Karstad]

Hiya,

I rebuilt my kernel 2.4.7 after applied Alan Cox patch 6 to get FastTrak
100 support in my kernel. The kernel boots fine up until after it's
freeing memory used by kernel with the following printout..


Freeing unused kernel memory: 236kbytes
Invalid operand: 0000
CPU:0
EIP: 0010:[<c010ca24>]
EFALGS: 00010206
... then all the registers

then
..
Process swapper
...
code: 0f ae 82 90 03 00 00 db c2 eb 08 90 dd b2 90 03 00 00 9b 0f


And then it dies in "idle task something" and freezes.. ;>
(it's a thunder storm here atm, so I will boot to get more info later)

My system is a 

Dual P2 300 Mhz with 192MB ram
Promise FastTrak 100 + 4x IBM ATA 100 75GB disks
Intel EtherPro/100 and an old Mach64CT gfx adapter

Regards

Arnvid

If yo can grab the EIP and the calltrace after the thunderstorm, then look
them up in System.map that would be great. Also see if disabling pnpbios
support helps

I tried to both disable the pnpbios in the config but it didn't help

EIP 0010:[<c010c764>]
Process swapper : (pid: 0, stackspace c0279000)
CALLTRACE
[<c01057c2>][<c0112d1e>][<c01051b0>][<c010501b0>][<c010524e>][<c0105000>][<c0105043>]

Can't really seem to find any of this in system.map .. but I'm prolly
looking wrong =)

For each of the eip and call trace values find the System.map entry that is
the nearest address _before_ the one given
