The 2.0.37pre4 kernel that I built this evening crashes during the initial boot-up. It dies here:
SCSI device sdd: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 4178874 [2040 MB] [2.0 GB] PPP: version 2.2.0 (dynamic channel allocation) TCP compression code copyright 1989 Regents of the University of California PPP Dynamic channel allocation code copyright 1995 Caldera, Inc. PPP line discipline registered. SLIP: version 0.8.4-NET3.019-NEWTTY (dynamic channels, max=256). SLIP linefill/keepalive option. 3c59x.c:v0.99H 11/17/98 Donald Becker http://cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov/linux/drivers/vortex.html eth0: 3c509 at 0x250 tag 1, 10baseT port, address 00 c0 4f d9 79 7f, IRQ 10. 3c509.c:1.16 2/3/98 becker@cesdis.gsfc.nasa.gov Partition check: sda: sda1 sda2
The " sda1 sda2" never prints.
sda is on an Adaptec board, and my guess is that this is the first time that the Adaptec driver tries to read the disk. I knew that the driver changed between pre3 and pre4, so I grafted the pre4 changes back into pre3, and the resulting kernel worked (for the last 15 minutes, anyway).
I'm willing to supply more info if anyone is interested, but since there is no logging active at this point, I will need either a pointer to info on how to get the traceback in machine readable form (this case is not covered in oops-tracing.txt) or some time and a pencil and paper...
