The Kernel works fine. But for error I execute /usr/src/linux/vmlinux as root user. Then the system is rebooted (without unmounting anything) Curious. Then I execute vmlinux as normal user, and the system is rebooted!!! If I execute this file in Kernel 2.4.6, then tell me "Segmentation fault" I copy this file to my laptop computer with Kernel 2.4.10 (Pentium 166 MMX) and execute as user. And reboot the system! With a 2.4.9 Kernel, tell me "Segmentation fault". A friend with Pentium 3, too reboot his system. My /proc/cpuinfo of computer laptop: carles@pinux:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : GenuineIntel cpu family : 5 model : 4 model name : Pentium MMX stepping : 4 cpu MHz : 167.047 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : yes coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 mmx bogomips : 333.41 I do: dd if=vmlinux of=hang bs=1k count=10 and this "mini-file" too reboot the system. You can get this file here: http://www.salleurl.edu/~is08139/hang.html (10 k) I think that it is some bad instruction for CPU. But I think that Kernel would control no? and a bad instruction in Pentium MMX (laptop), Pentium 3, and Pentium 2? Thank you very much, and excuse me my bad English. If you need more information about systems, configuration, etc. tell me. ---- Carles Pina i Estany | Nick: Pinux / Pine / Teufeus http://www.salleURL.edu/~is08139/ Tienes menos vocabulario que el diccionario de tarz?n - 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/
