Hi,
I've got a problem booting the linux kernel 2.5.60-bk1 and -bk2. 2.5.60 works
with no problems! The last messages before halting are (hand copied):
VFS: Mounted root (reiserfs filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 220k freed
INIT: version 2.78 booting
And then nothing else happens...
Of course there are no entries in the log files. My config-file is attached.
My machine is a K6-III 450 with following filesystems:
/ is reiserfs on /dev/hda5
/boot is ext3 on /dev/hda3
Greetings

Is it a solid hang, or does the keyboard still work?
If so, alt-scrolllock will get you an EIP of where its hanging/looping.

OK, I did do a <ALT><SysReq>P and got following (again hand copied... ;-):
Pid: 0, comm: swapper
EIP: 0060:[<c0107052>] CPU: 0
EIP is at default_idle + 0x26/0x2c
EAX: 00000000 EBX: c010702c ECX: cffac660
....

Yes it seems so, but I wonder why it worked without any problem with
2.5.60...? So in any kind it IS a kernel related problem...

Can you try -bk3 ?
It may have contained some of the signal fixes that went in recently.
I'm not sure how many of those made it into -bk1/bk2.

Sorry for the delay, but this machine compiles slowly... ;-)
And you were right, the problem is fixed in -bk3!
Thanks alot!
