Hello!

I use GRUB Legacy bootloader (version 0.97) on a couple machines, and
where 3.18.x loads fine, 3.19-rc1 does not.

While compiling I used the attached .config file accompanied by "make
olddefconfig"

Can you tell me something about the hardware (processor model)?
You are not booting the system under VMWare by any chance?

As a matter of fact - I am compiling in a VMware Player (6.0.3
build-1895310) virtual machine, boot testing there, and then if everything is OK, I transfer the monolithic kernel produced on 3 virtual machines that
run on EXSi and 2 actual servers. So along those lines - the failing
3.19-rc1 never saw actual hardware - it was all tested (and bisected) inside
a VM.

Thanks. VMWare having problems with my patch is a known issue. I've
already sent a patch working around that issue (VMWare has a bug
emulating the PAT MSR). You can either use that patch (attached for
your convenience) or use the "nopat" option.

This patch works for me. I made tests with this patch.
