Well, on my machine, running ELF 1.2.8 and ELF XFree86 3.1.1, I don't see this problem at all. I have 20Mb RAM and 8Mb swap. I have just tried executor under kernel 1.3.4 without problems. What version of gcc did you compile your kernel with? Maybe that's the problem. If it was 2.6.3 you are asking for trouble. Tim.
