I recently downloaded, and using "make-kpkg buildpackage", built a
complete new kernel headers...etc. from a tarball( linux-2.4.21)
downloaded from www.kernel.org. It installed with no problems, including
running lilo. I rebooted and crapped out at the line "freeing unused
kernel memory". I have built many kernels over the years but I need to
get new usb devices implemented as well as scsi emulation etc. for
cd-burner & mustek scanner mods builtin. I thought "no problem" and
proceeded to implement the old kernel and start over. To my great
surprise the old kernel now craps out at the exact same place. Kind of
makes me think it,s something other than the new kernel...however all
was working fine before the reboot. However this is a SID system and I
have recently upgraded other apps...very carefully. avoiding buggy
proggies via apt-listbug. Any ideas as to what is going on? Anyone know
of ANY bugs yielding this problem?
Thanks!
John
