Hallo everyone, I have a small question regarding the Domain Validation debugging output from my machine. It has four identical IBM drives, two on each channel. There's always a message saying "target0:0:0: wide asynchronous.", even without "verbose" booting. But in the verbose output below, ther

Hi all, just a small question. The pre13-x.diff.gz patches vanished from ftp.xx.kernel.org. I need pre13-5 and pre13-6 (and later, if there where any). They have not been moved to testing/old or something, hopefully they're not lost ? cheers, Patrick - To unsubscribe from this list: send the li

Masking out one page of RAM because of bit-errors.

2000-09-12 Thread Patrick Mau
Dear list-readers, I have a bad SDRAM chip with exactly one bit error. Memtest86 shows that the bit error always occurs at the address 0x4eff508. I tried to calculate the page number and it should be 20223. I then looked at arch/i386/mm/init.c and found the function "page_is_ram". I added a test
