Description

I think this is the same issue:
I have a Digital Celebris, 64 megs memory, 2 "classic" 166 mhz Pentium chips,
64 megs mem. a 170 meg IDE (/boot) and two fast/wide SCSI drives on a Q-logic
IPE SCSI card.
I installed 7.1 (2.4.2-2 SMP) and it works like a champ.
I updated to the 2.4.9-34 SMP kernel, and every reboot ends in a kernel panic
("Attempted to kill init!")
2.4.9-34 UP kernel always boots successfully.
The displayed stack-frame:

end stack frame
Update: I did some snooping around on Bugzilla, and found bug 63296 (viz: 7.3 RH) that sounds suspiciously like this one.... one guy put up a stack-frame that was almost the spittin' image of the one I entered above.... There are also some interesting proposed solutions/workarounds. Question: how many of these updated kernels would work with 7.1? (BTW) I originally tried installing 7.3 on this system and gave it up because it was so painful.... I back-rev'd to 7.1 just to see what was what. I may try going back to 7.3, if I can get the kernel they suggest... Jim Thanks for the bug report. However, Red Hat no longer maintains this version of the product. Please upgrade to the latest version and open a new bug if the problem persists. The Fedora Legacy project (http://fedoralegacy.org/) maintains some older releases, and if you believe this bug is interesting to them, please report the problem in the bug tracker at: http://bugzilla.fedora.us/ |
