Hi,

My old diskless dual Pentium I 100MHz system does not like the latest
code. I use etherboot to boot it. I have tried both an UP and SMP kernel
but it panic in the same way. Looking at the low address values, it
looks as if it happens very early. Maybe something depends on the
loader initializing things nowadays? A kernel of about 2 weeks ago
did boot without a problem, even an SMP one.

On bootup this is what I see:
