Confusingly, I sent two kernel binaries with the same patch level. But you can tell them apart from the banner (also /proc/version): Linux version 4.1.35-mac_scsi-egret+ (fthain@nippy) (gcc version 4.6.3 (GCC) ) #2 Tue Oct 25 13:37:53 AEDT 2016 Linux version 4.1.35-mac_scsi-egret+ (fthain@nippy) (gcc version 4.6.3 (GCC) ) #1 Wed Nov 2 13:09:32 AEDT 2016 If I understand correctly, you've only observed two possible outcomes: either a hang shortly after "ABCFGHIJK" or else "kernel BUG at block/deadline-iosched.c". Does those outcomes apply to both of these kernel binaries, given the same Penguin settings etc? > In Penguin, I'm configuring the serial ports to 38400, 8 bits, no > parity, turning off appletalk and booting with extensions off.

Could that be an issue here? If it is an issue, I've never heard of it. I regularly use Penguin on a Powerbook with 12 MB RAM. -- > > -Stan >
