Subject: Re: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer kernel 2.4.21-pre3-ac4
Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2003 14:05:43 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3E25DB37.2040806@tupshin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <3E2508EB.70600@tupshin.com>

OK....this definitely(well 99.5% chance) seems to be a problem that is 
in 2.4.21-pre3-ac4, but is not in 2.4.21-pre3, or in linus' bk tree. 
Also, this problem is not caused by the device-mapper patch which is the 
only reason I was trying the ac tree in the first place.

So, it's an ac specific problem separate from the device-mapper code:

Another (possibly related) hint is that at bootup, I get many(measured 
in the hundreds) reports of "ide: no cache flush required" which is in 
ide_cacheflush_p in drivers/ide/ide-disk.c, and is only present in the 
ac tree.

Does this seem like a likely culprit?

Hello...is this thing on...can anyone hear me? ;-)
