I am using armel lenny inside a qemu virtual machine. Built it by using de-
bootstrap inside loop mounted hd image, and then booting it with a third
party
kernel. I installed linux-image-2.6.26-2-versatile after the
bootstrapping was
complete so I could have the cdrom and mouse drivers. The problem is:
when ins-
talling anything using apt-get, the kernel will panic after downloading
the fi-
les, at configuration time. This caused corruption of many files in
/var/lib/
dpkg, making dpkg unusable. I solved this issue by rebuilding the system
on an
ext3 partition. Even though, the problem is still there. The last lines
of the
panic output are as follow (sorry, couldn`t get anything prior to that,
since I
can't scroll up and all...):

[ 0.000000] Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
In order to get this, I ran the system with:
qemu-system-arm -M versatilepb -kernel vmlinuz-2.6.26-2-versatile -initrd
initrd.img-2.6.26-2-versatile [1] -hda hda.img -hdb swap.img [2] -cdrom
debian-501-armel-DVD-1.iso [3] -m 256M -append "root=/dev/sda rw mem=256M"
[1] Got these 2 from inside the hd image, on /boot/.
[2] 1G swap file. Dunno if it helps, but it's there.
[3] My internet is quite unstable, so I need this one. That's one of the
rea-
sons I need this kernel.
Please tell me if you need any further information.
Thanks.
