I have just tried starting a 2.6.25 kernel on Debian disk.img (both from Stephen). This is what happens from the nfblock side before it halts: 1) XHGetCapacity is called on device 16 (= [IDE0]) and gets positive answer: size of the device in blocks is 20971440 (=10 GB) 2) XHRead(16.0, recno=0, count=0, buf=$8) is called - it tries to read 0 sectors so the answer is OK - probably just a quick test from the linux kernel if the device is inserted and readable. 3) ARAnyM XHRead(16.0, recno=0, count=65280, buf=$8) is called - it tries to read 65280 sectors to address $8, so it's going to overwrite bottom 32 MB of memory with data from the disk drive. Then it crashes with the double bus fault - I don't know where the PC is but maybe the currect program code gets overwritten by the disk data - that would explain the crash easily. I can debug this further from the outside but I was wondering if it is normal to read 65280 sectors blindly and store it to 0x00000008 address. Why such an amount of data? And is the address 0x0008 OK as a disk buffer? I almost feel like the parameters are not passed in correctly (65280 is 0xff00).
