Hi I`m using fedora core 3 kernel (2.6.9-1.667). I would like to mention first that this is not only the first time i am encountering this error, however , for the last 3 days i had had setup routers on different distributions/kernels and quagga/zebra different packages (source/binaries) and versions but i still get the same behaviour.
Now by following the documentation you supplied in the REPORTING-BUGS file here are your details: 1. Kernel panic (Oops) using zebra/quagga 2. This problem i encounter when I`m stopping the zebra daemon. 3. Networking, zebra, quagga, bgpd, kernel, kernel panic 4.

None scsi devices on this computer I guess it is important to mention the quagga version currently installed, quagga-0.97.0-1(from FC3 RPM). I also worked successfully using zebra/quagga on redhats 9.0 default kernel and after that on its kernel.x.x.x.rpm that i took from updates.redhat.com with different versions/packages of quagga/zebra and it worked great.
