This patch causes the ppc64 G5 to lock up fairly early in boot. It's pretty much a default config: http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/config-pmac No serial port, no debug environment, but no useful-looking error messages either. See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/dsc02516.jpg Also, the patch came through with all the "^ $" lines converted to completely empty lines - probably your email client is trying to be clever. Please send yourself a patch, check that it applies? Finally, I do intend to merge up the various slab patches which are in -mm, so if you could base further work on top of those it would simplify life, thanks. - 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/
