From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686) Description of problem: I installed the latest rawhide rpms of the kernel. After a reboot, the kernel panics during the booting. I tried several times and also reinstalled the kernel rpm. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Download the rawhide 2.4.3-2.14.10.1 kernel rpm 2. reboot Actual Results: shift-page up didn't work so i don't have the complete output probably. The following text was visible on the screen after the panic/crash: v0 = 0000000000000000 t0 = 0000000000000000 t1 = 0000000000000000 t2 = 0000000000000000 t3 = 0000000000000000 t4 = 0000000000000007 t5 = 0000000000000000 t6 = fffffc0000b242a8 t7 = fffffc0000aa4000 s0 = 0000000000000000 s1 = fffffc0000b24e60 s2 = 0000000000000000 s3 = 0000000000000007 s4 = fffffc0000b24e58 s5 = 0000000000000007 s6 = fffffc0000aa7e60 a0 = 0000000000000007 a1 = 0000000000000000 a2 = 0000000000000001 a3 = 0000000000000001 a4 = 0000000000000000 a5 = 0000000000000000 t8 = 000000000000001f t9 = fffffc0000a29da8 t10 = 0000000000000006 t11 = 000000000000000a pv = fffffc00008297e0 at = 0000000000000000 gp = fffffc0000b775d8 sp = fffffc0000aa7e60 code = 47fe070f or zero, sp, s7 b75e0000 stq ra,0(sp) b53e0008 stq s0,8(sp) 221f0007 lda a0,7(zero) 00000035 call_pal 53 47e00409 or zero,v0,s0 *b7e20000 stq zero,0(t1) a4220070 ldq t0,112(t1) Trace: fffffc000084dcac fffffc000084eca4 fffffc000084ef54 fffffc000084a0a4 fffffc000084a3d4 fffffc0000849890 fffffc000081001c Kernel panic: Attempted to kill the idle task! In idle task - not syncing Expected Results: a normal bootup :-) Additional info: Because i didn't save the previous rawhide kernel, i compiled a new one. First a kernel without binfmt for coff and binfmt for x86, so only elf and misc enabled. (misc as module). That kernel worked but i couldn't run netscape. I compiled a new one, this time also with the other two binfmt as modules. After reboot: i got the same panic. Again i compiled a new one without those two binfmt's and the kernel works. System: Miata alpha, 500au Please let me know if you need additional information.
I downloaded the latest rpmpackages of rawhide yesterday and upgraded all packages. Kernel 2.4.3-5 doesn't panic anymore. This kernel boots without any problems. Can this bugreport be closed or is there any need to figure out why the previous rawhide kernel didn't work? Kind regards, Dries
