Agreed, I'm going to drop the smp flavour in 2.6.17-10. > My alphas have always been UP, so I have no interest in it myself. Same for me, none of my alphas have more than one processor.

Note that this will increase the size of the resultant image by ~8k, is that within bounds for d-i? Can we get away with just enabling this on the 686[-pae] subarchs (and do we care to)? I assume that this is the appropriate kernel for all existing/planned i386/EFI systems, but that would mean d-i would need to use this flavor for the install kernel. -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It might be worth dropping MAX_CPUS down from 64 to 4 to see if this goes away - I don't know what would be eating all the memory, but this might reduce it. Then again, maybe nobse's fix worked out... -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is a baseless ultimatum; the kernels on alpha are as in as good of shape as at any time in the etch release cycle. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

Preparing 2.6.17-7
Hello, the next 2.6.17 upload, version 2.6.17-7 should become a candidate for testing. I would like to schedule the upload for Wednesday, Aug. 23. amd64 and i386 will go through NEW again, due to the added xen images. we have 4 RC bugs left, of which 2 need immediate attention: #342246: [ia64 headers] arch/ia64/modules.lds: No such file or directory #369517: linux-image-2.6.16-1-alpha-smp: undefined scsi symbols; fails to allocate percpu data The other two RC bugs concern firmware, and will be addressed after a solution for the firmware issue has been found. Unfortunately, alpha seems rather unmaintained lately. We cannot support it anymore this way, and may remove it in a future upload. As usual, if more time is needed for anything pending, we will of course reschedule. Best regards Frederik Schueler -- ENOSIG signature.asc Description: Digital signature
