I'm trying to make the hp simulator work with kernel 2.4.3. Is that possible, or the simulator has been left out for a long time? After successfully compiling the kernel (one little patch was needed), I've got these messages while trying to boot the kernel with ski: [...] kernel BUG at bootmem.c:144! swapper[0]: General Exception: IA-64 Reserved Register/Field fault (data access) 549755813936 [...] The second message repeats until the kernel panics with: [...] Call Trace: [] sp=0xe0000000046dd080 bsp=0xe0000000046dedd0 Kernel panic: Attempted to kill the idle task! In idle task - not syncing Maybe I'm using some option I shouldn't... If there's no way of working out those problems, anybody knows what's the latest kernel that works with the simulator? Thanks!! -- Gustavo Niemeyer [ 2AAC 7928 0FBF 0299 5EB5 60E2 2253 B29A 6664 3A0C ]
