It looks like 2.4.0-test7 won't boot on a Fujitsu Lifebook 765DX. The
kernel immediately hard reboots very early in the setup phase, before
it even displays the Uncompressing Linux message (or so it looks.)
The machine's relevant specs:
Fujitsu Lifebook 765DX
Pentium MMX 133 MHz
48 MB of RAM (up
mbers; you just register the name in
the /dev/whatever namespace and it's done. (The kernel will assign a
unique old-style 16-bit number for compatibility purposes as needed.)
See linux/Documentation/filesystems/devfs/README for the full s
The following bug was just logged for 2.4.0-test10-pre4.
The machine was recompiling glibc (off a ReiserFS 3.6.18 filesystem)
and X was just running a screensaver at the time this happened. X was
locked up and I couldn't switch to a console, so I killed it with
Alt+SysRq. I was then able to get a
re6 on i386. It needs to be
updated for other architectures, mostly in setup.c though.)
I hope this is helpful. Maybe the maintainers would like to comment on
this too (i.e., might it be considered for 2.4.1, etc.?)

ct thread (which was causing the
alignment problem.) FYI, I'm compiling with pgcc 2.95.2 and linking
with binutils/ld 2.10 (I've used both of these successfully for
countless kernel compiles before this.)
Anyone else had this problem?

I used regular gcc 2.95.2 and it compiled and linked without problems.
Thanks.
