this happens on loopbacked ext2, and not on regular vfat. so it appears that
the culprit is loopback. i got ksymoops working, here are the traces from
the vfat-over-loopback [first] and the ext2-over-loopback [second].
again, these are copied by hand, so i give it a 1% chance of
mistranscription.
ksymoops 2.3.5 on i686 2.4.0. Options used
-V (default)
-k /proc/ksyms (default)
-l /proc/modules (default)
-o /lib/modules/2.4.0/ (default)
-m /usr/src/linux/System.map (default)
Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information. I will
assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running
right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution.
If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get
more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find
map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options.
