After it proved impossible to capture an oops through netconsole, I started git bisect. This will apparently take almost a week, as git estimated 13 bisection steps and I will be allowing about 12 hours of uptime as a sign for a good kernel. (In my four or five tests of bad kernels before I started bisection, they hung after 3 minutes...5.5 hours uptime, with no discernible difference in workload. Maybe 12 h cutoff is even too short...) -- Stefan Richter -======----- -=-- ===-= http://arcgraph.de/sr/
