Comment 2 Robert Scheck 2004-06-14 15:35:54 EDT

Arjan (or someone else from Red Hat) could you please try to crash 
kernel-2.6.6-1.435 at x86_64 computer? So I was able to crash 
kernel-2.6.6-1.427 at x86_64 and I can't find any fix in 435 for 
x86_64, so only x86 (IA32) is fixed, currently.

Comment 3 Robert Scheck 2004-10-13 10:21:23 EDT

At least, kernel-2.6.8-1.541 solves this problem for me, closing.
