As per K.R. Foley's report, booting on SMP fails. I tried & failed to capture the boot messages via serial, so the best I can offer is a pic of what remained visible on screen at the death. I suspect there was more prior to that, but so far that's the best I can offer. Booting with maxcpus=1 didn't fail completely, but also suffered dramas. Loss of usb mouse was the most noticable. If that scenario might be interesting or helpful, I'll pursue it further. cheers, Cal - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
