I haven't such problem on a dual x86-64 box. Actually I have the same problem in x86-64 The content of my arch/x86/lib/inat-tables.c: /* x86 opcode map generated from x86-opcode-map.txt */ /* Do not change this code. */ /* Table: one byte opcode */ /* Escape opcode map array */ const insn_attr_t const *inat_escape_tables[INAT_ESC_MAX + 1][INAT_LPREFIX_MAX + 1] = { }; /* Group opcode map array */ const insn_attr_t const *inat_group_tables[INAT_GRP_MAX + 1][INAT_LPREFIX_MAX + 1] = { }; I guess there is a problem with the generation of this file.
