The problem is - I don't know about any working SMP kernel which would survive this test - thought haven't got into a really big history - tried something like 2.6.22 kernels - no luck - also many kernel seems to be unbootable in SMP mode on my machine giving many oopses - in fact just 2.6.24 series starts to be at least reliable in booting in my Qemu setup without failing during disk mounting or in some other place... Will try to find probably some 2.6.18 kernel and will check what happens. On the other hand - I've tried to replicate my bug on few other machines with no luck actually - so it's something which might not be easy to trace :( Zdenek ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
