Subject: [2.5.63] Kernel Panic During Boot (Swap???)

hello, heres the situation. Compiled 2.5.63 with the mod-utils 0.9.9
version. Kernel worked the first couple of times using it. but then, while
trying to loaded some changes to it. It now crashes each time with a Kernel
Panic. Reverting back to the my saved 2.4.21-pre3 I can still boot. Also,
undoing the kernel changes isn't kelping me. Heres some of the code snip
the kernel boot out. and the location where: (sorry if there are a couple
of typos, typing it on another machine): This is redhat 8 based on a Compaq
900z which runs off of the Radeon IGP 320M Chipset.

I can reproduce this consistantly so far, so will give any information I can
give ya. I'm gonna go and continue modding the kernel to see if i can break
it down or see the solution.

Hi Mark,

Can you try with "Load all Symbols" in kernel hacking config option or use
ksymoops to decode this oops message?
