Hello,
I got a diskless station and i wanted to test the 2.5.* series.
I got an Oops when the kernel tries to mount the rootfs on nfs.
The kernel is build without modules, without ide, without scsi, with nfs and root on nfs option, devfs.
The oops is shown bellow.
Thank for advice.
Bert.

I'm having the same problem.
On my notebook (wireless PCMCIA, D-Link DWL650), 2.5.63 oopses immediately on
trying to mount an NFS filesystem. On my desktop it works fine. I can't
find any kernel configuration differences that look obvious. I'll be glad to
forward any relevant parts of the .config if it will be helpful.
I've read elsewhere that there's a simple patch that fixes this, but I haven't
been able to find it anywhere.

Trond quietly sent out the below patch a while back. Could you please see if
this fixes things up?

Works like a champ! I really appreciate your help.
