Crash in request_region while handling kernel parameters

2001-02-13 Thread Michael Karcher
Hello kernel-hackers, I found a problem with kernel 2.4, that makes the kernel crash at bootup, for example when using the UMC8672 VLB IDE controller driver. The problem is in kernel/resource.c. In line 229 some memory for handling new io-regions is kmalloc()ed. This crashes the computer before
