You did that in the 32-bit chroot, right? I wouldn't expect the config to
cause the compilation failure you reported. But ok, your problem now is only
the crash.

no, on a seperate machine (I don't have a 32 bit chroot development environment in place, but I do have my dev box that I've been useing available)

I get the error "remove_umid_dir - actually_do_remove failed with err = -2"

That message is an error during shutdown cleanup, the real error happens
before - but it seems no message is printed, which is possible (even though a
bit strange).

it worked, so the problem is somewhere in the differences between your
kernel config and mine (trimmed diff in the mail I'm replying to, full
config attached)

I don't see any obvious uml related differences (other then the fact that
I disabled TT mode to enable static linking per your prior suggestion),
any suggestions?

At this point I don't see why you can't simply use the working config and
modify it - however I _do_ see 1 problem:

simply becouse there are a lot of options set so if we can identify which one is wrong it's easier for me to fix that. also I want to be able to migrate configs from stand-along systems (both 32 and 64 bit) to um kernels so this not just a one-time thing

CONFIG_3_LEVEL_PGTABLES=y

This works on x86_64, but is unstable on i386. In fact at some point you had a
crash, right? This config option should be able to explain that (but not a
compilation failure). So disable it, and things should work.

testing this now. since I started with a x86_64 config at one point this got set automaticaly by that and didn't get shutoff.

by the way pcap gives some errors on x86_64 but builds, but on i386 it crashes the build.

this seems to have been the issue, thanks.
