Subject: 2.6.11-rc5-mm1: (seemingly non-fatal) NULL pointer dereference on startup
Date: Wed, 2 Mar 2005 02:13:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200503020213.00174.bero@arklinux.org> (raw)
I got this right after the initramfs script was finished and the root
filesystem was mounted:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
printing eip:
c02f52fa
*pde = 00000000

Same box, same kernel, with hotplug disabled boots up fine and produces a
similar oops later:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
