Information is included according the suggested reporting format. The message the kernel gave: Code: 89 42 04 89 10 b8 01 00 00 00 c7 43 04 00 00 00 00 c7 03 00 Aiee, killing interrupt handler Kernel panic: Attempted to kill the idle task! In interrupt handler - not syncing It also happened that it "Attempted to kill the init task!" 1: Kernel panics on sending large ping packets using 'ping' 2: When i try to send large ping packets, (i didnt try to find the underlimit) The kernel panics with an 'Aiee' message. This is reproducable. 3: kernel, networking 4: Linux version 2.4.0-test12 5: 6: #!/bin/sh ping -s 60000 127.0.0.1 7.0: 7.1: Linux kryptology 2.4.0-test12 #1 Sun Dec 17 16:08:31 CET 2000 i686 unknown Kernel modules 2.3.23 Gnu C 2.95.2 Gnu Make 3.79.1 Binutils 2.10.1.0.2 Linux C Library > libc.2.2 Dynamic linker ldd (GNU libc) 2.2 Procps 2.0.6 Mount 2.10q Net-tools 2.05 Console-tools 0.2.3 Sh-utils 2.0i 7.2: processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 6 model : 5 model name : Pentium II (Deschutes) stepping : 2 cpu MHz : 350.817 cache size : 512 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 2 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr bogomips : 699.60 7.3: none 7.4: 0000-001f : dma1 0020-003f : pic1 0040-005f : timer 0060-006f : keyboard 0080-008f : dma page reg 00a0-00bf : pic2 00c0-00df : dma2 00f0-00ff : fpu 0170-0177 : ide1 01f0-01f7 : ide0 0300-031f : eth0 0376-0376 : ide1 03c0-03df : vga+ 03f6-03f6 : ide0 03f8-03ff : serial(set) 0cf8-0cff : PCI conf1 d000-dfff : PCI Bus #01 d000-d0ff : ATI Technologies Inc 3D Rage Pro AGP 1X/2X e000-e00f : VIA Technologies, Inc.
