Hi Alexander, I recommend using the linuxppc-2.5 BK tree for 8xx. Are you doing that? The linuxppc-embedded list is a better place for discussion of such issues. And about your problem, you need to get the full oops message, not only the beginning of it. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
