Hello!


I have a computer with motherboard VIA EPIA-V.
(http://www.via.com.tw/en/products/mainboards/mini_itx/epia_v/)

I've compiled kernel for it but it doesn't work. It doesn't shows any 
error but stopped with:


VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 136k freed.
Executing init=/sbin/init


Then there are no any other messages. Computer is alive (keyboard input 
is worked).


Please help me.

I bet your /sbin/init (or all programs spawned by it)
is compiled with P4 instructions (cmov or something like that).

Recompile those for 386.

I can confirm that from a similar experience. Running a glibc-i586 on i386 
locks up too due to cmpxchg not being available.
