I use a similar kernel for several weeks and it lock up "hard" during "make zlilo" (always) or "make bzImage" (from time to time) ;-( I have to-do several sync commands form another shell to build a bootable kernel. But "make modules modules_install" works always smooth. No hangs during "normal" use. Latest kernel is: Linux version 2.4.18-pre8-K3-VM-24-preempt-lock (root@SunWave1) (gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)) #1 Mit Feb 13 23:15:44 CET 2002 plus waitq-2.4.17-mainline-1 bootmem-2.4.17-pre6 read-latency-2 latest ReiserFS stuff Regards, Dieter -- Dieter N?tzel Graduate Student, Computer Science University of Hamburg Department of Computer Science @home: Dieter.Nuetzel@hamburg.de - 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/
