Hello Peter, I am have been building a Fedora 20 image for the XO4, and I am seeing memory corruption problems while running yum in these images (please check the logs [1,2]).
To give you some context, we are using olpc-os-builder (master [3]) with fc20 repositories plus a few hand-crafted packages such as the kernel, systemd and xorg, taken from previous Daniel Narvaez efforts [4,5]. These crashes happens randomly when yum is running, by calling yum update or when olpc-os-build is installing system packages. James Cameron, who spent some time researching about this issue, speculates that this problem could be caused by: (a) using older kernel that was compiled (possibly) with different options compared to f20's, or (b) a faulty glibc library. I was wondering if this could be related to something else, something more specific to yum or python arm binaries (?). I would sincerely appreciate any guidance you can provide to start discarding possibilities and try to debug this issue. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide! Regards, Martin.
