- I have a problem with SLS 0.99-47:
-
- After I had installed Linux I re-compiled the kernel because I
- wanted to use my German Keyboard. (Searching for keys can be very
- annoying... )
- Everything worked fine until I rebooted.
- Linux displayed some normal installation messages and after that, it
- DIED with the following strange message:
-
- general protection: 0000
- EIP: 0008: 0000B694
- EFLAGS: 00010286
- fs: 0017
- base: C0000000, limit: 000A0000
- pid: 1, process nr: 1
- 8b 13 d2 74 27 83 3a 02 74
-
- I have done some debugging by inserting 'printk("I am here!");'
- into the kernel-sources and I think the system crashes just after
- mounting the root-device and during opening TTY1.
-
- Another strange thing is the fact, that 'ps' seems to fail:
-
- PID TT STAT TIME COMMAND
- lseek kmem: Unknown error 186956107
-
- My system configuration is:
- Mainboard: 386DX 40Mhz (AMD)
- Harddisk: Maxtor 7213A (212MB, IDE)
- (I do not use strange or exotic hardware)
-
- Can anybody help me ???
