SubjectHello, I'm new here. Have you seen this problem???


I've compiled kernels in the 2.0.xx sequence lots of times, but I never
had a problem like I've had with 2.1.108. I find no discussion of it in
dejanews, so I've joined here just to see what you think.

The kernel configures/compiles fine. Lilo seems to install it, but on
restart I get the lilo prompt, and choose linux-2.1.108, and then it says

loading linux-2.1.108
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel

And there's nothing more. The disk lights on the cd and floppy light up,
but it dies there. I get total system lockup and have to turn it off. Is
it not finding the compressed kernel at all, or
what?

Hardware. Dual PII-300, Symbios SCSI CARD (with NCR drivers), 2 SCSI HD,
1 SCSI tape, 1 SCSI CD, 1 SCSI ZIP drive.

Redhat Linux 5.1, upgraded for all errata.

I'm interested in this new kernel because I'm told it solves the long
browse list problems that arise in samba when viewing shares on a win95
machine. Now, lists are usually truncated at 65 files or such, and in
the smb usenet group they say this fixes it.
