Unfortunately, I can't say where the bug was introduced, as this is the first kernel I've tried on my Alpha since 2.6.22-rc7. Best guess is somewhere between .23-rc1 and .23-rc2, based on changes to files in arch/alpha/boot in that patch set. The problem happens early: aboot starts to load vmlinux.gz, and I get an "unzip: invalid exec header" error. There's an earlier error from aboot I can't quote exactly, but the template from aboot (bootlx) is:
aboot: Can't load kernel. Memory at %lx - %lx (chunk %i) is %s The first %lx is all zeros. The last %lx is all "F"s. The chunk number is 1, and I *think* the %s is "busy". -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Bob Tracy | "Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get [EMAIL PROTECTED] | sucked into jet engines." --Anon ----------------------------------------------------------------------- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
