Subject: 2.5.60 oops on boot, EIP at current_kernel_time

Greetings all,

I tried to boot 2.5.60 on a dual P3, SMP and PREEMPT enabled,
and got this oops early in the boot. The following was hand-copied.

If more information is needed, I can repeat and transcribe more.

The root fs is ext3.

EIP Is at current_kernel_time+0x12/0x50
.
.
Trace
ramfs_get_inode+0x7c/0x120
ramfs_fill_super+0x2e/0x60
get_sb_nodev+0x39/0x70
do_kern_mount+0x42/0xb0
ramfs_fill_super+0x0/0x60
_stext+0x/0x50

Somehow my .config had gotten corrupted resulting in an enormous kernel.

1954567 Feb 11 10:13 vmlinuz-2.5.60
1173425 Feb 11 14:01 vmlinuz-2.5.60-bk1

After fixing the .config, all is well with 2.5.60-bk1 and -dj2.
