How did you determine this? The panic message prints the faulting address, which happens to be 0x3c. GPR8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 are typical sources for intermediate pointers, two of those are zero. I would guess a NULL pointer to a data structure trying to access the contents at offset 0x3c. > I noticed in System.map that data does not the first data entry.....

Who is they, what's a SUNI-Lite, and does it matter? Best of all, if you don't like the address you can change it. We need more info. -- Dan ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
