Hi, I have upgraded a Pentium-1 PC from 5 to 6-Stable, which went smoothly. Now I'm running 6 with GENERIC kernel, and I want to compile a new kernel. When I start a new kernel compilation, this process *always* freezes the PC (no crash) when reaching the point of "linking kernel"; this is 100 percent reproducible!! Then all communication with the PC is frozen; no serial port response, no ssh response etc. However, I can ping the PC..... Only power off/on brings the PC back to live. Any idea how I can further investigate. /var/log/messages has no special information while the freezing occurred. The output of 'dmesg' of this PC is here: http://surfion.snu.ac.kr/~lahaye/dmesg Regards, Rob. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
