Please post your entire .config and also try and reproduce with test9
Created attachment 1308 [details] kernel .config
No problems with 2.6.0-test9-bk5. Some compiler warnings for samba/ipsec/ipv6 tho (not related to this)
ewps... there is still one more... arch/i386/boot/setup.S: Assembler messages: arch/i386/boot/setup.S:165: Warning: value 0x37ffffff truncated to 0x37ffffff
If i recall correctly, this is a bug in your assembler. Which version are you using (as -v)?
(See Software Environment) $ as86 -v as86 version: 0.16.13
Please send as -v output and not as86 -v
oh.. sorry :/ $ as -v GNU assembler version 2.14.90.0.6 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) using BFD version 2.14.90.0.6 20030820
I believe that's a bug in the assembler and not the Linux kernel, it should be safe to ignore. I'll close this bug now.
(also with "GNU assembler version 2.14.90.0.7 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) using BFD version 2.14.90.0.7 20031029")
