If it's caused by x86.git then the 'mm' branch of the x86 > git tree can be used for bisection: > > git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/x86/linux-2.6-x86.git I did, but it's hard, if you don't know the BAD point. HEAD boots fine and 'x86: randomize brk' too (the top of git-x86.patch). Andrew, how do you pull it, git #mm doesn't fit to the ids from the patch. Maybe if you can emit a broken-out with the fresh pull to test? regards, -- Jiri Slaby (jirislaby@gmail.com) Faculty of Informatics, Masaryk University - 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/
