Hi all,
Yesterday I build kernel 2.6.26.6 and it's run well. Today I got
2.6.27 patch and try to build it.
I build with `make oldconfig` and answer any question with default
answer, I just press [enter].
I build with `make`. No error and all compiled.
Then I install with `make modules_install` and `make install`.
After reboot the system I got 'kernel panic'.
This is the error picture :

Is it a bugs?

[2.6.26.6 run well]
Best regards,
Yudha_HT

Not wise.

Post diff -U0 between old and new config.

There is scripts/diffconfig in the 2.6.27 tree, which you should
probably use. "Using standard diff to compare .config files often
includes extraneous and distracting information".

I realize that this is a low-probability thought, but did you:
- apply the patch against 2.6.26 NOT 2.6.26.6
- run make clean before applying the patch

I keep configs in a separate place. I would first copy a 2.6.26 tree to a new
directory (cp -rl linux-2.6.26 linux2.6.27) then be sure I had a clean copy with
"make distclean" (or "make mrproper") and then apply the 2.6.27 patch. Then I
would copy the 2.6.26 (or maybe 2.6.26.6) config to .config, and make the oldconfig.
None of that is magic, it just keeps me from making common mistakes, lets me
start with a clean 2.6.27, etc, etc.
You mentioned oldconfig, but not starting back with a clean 2.6.26, which made
me think of this.
