As i already mailed, i need to revert that patch to make my system boot. this oops happens with all 3 patches below reverted, so i guess it'll happen too with stock test9. would the -mm5 pnp-fix-4.patch be worth a try ? it seems related thanks, greetings, frank Op Thursday 20 November 2003 16:22, schreef Andrew Morton: > There are three pnpbios patches in -mm: > > ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test9/2 >.6.0-test9-mm4/broken-out/pnp-fix-1.patch > ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test9/2 >.6.0-test9-mm4/broken-out/pnp-fix-2.patch > ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/akpm/patches/2.6/2.6.0-test9/2 >.6.0-test9-mm4/broken-out/pnp-fix-3.patch > > It would help if you could determine which (if any) of these are causing > the problem.  You can remove the patches with > >         cd /usr/src/linux >         patch -p1 -R < ~/pnp-fix-3.patch -- Frank Dekervel - frank.dekervel@student.kuleuven.ac.be Mechelsestraat 88 3000 Leuven (Belgium)
