Subject: High mem support, oops on 2.4.18
Date: 19 Jun 2002 14:20:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1024489212.15738.63.camel@gekko> (raw)

Hello!
Yesterday i sticked in another 256MB of ram [now it has 4x 256] and
noticed that only ~900MB was availeble.. so i recompiled with the hi mem
option [ i selected 4GB ]. But when it all loaded in the new build
kernel it was all but normal. 

when i tried running lilo it seg faulted leaving oops in the log, Load
was going off like crazy [idle server with +15 load]...

I tried appending mem size to the lilo, but it made no diffrence.

if i use 2.4.18 without the Hi mem option it works without any oopses or
problems what so ever, but with less availeble ram ofcourse :( 

all oops`s start with "Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
at virtual address 00000000"


The computer is :one Pentium III , 700mhz with 1G ram, running 2.4.18
kernel [RH 6.2]




i feed the ksymoops with oops that were in logs and got this out...
