I am having a serious problem trying to build a new kernel for my machine.
I was running 'current' and have now 'downgraded' to 4.0-RELEASE to try
and fix the problem. When I try to boot my machine, it goes into the
bootstrap loader okay, and waits 10 seconds, then the screen flashes and
the following message pops up on the screen:
kernel trap 9 with interrupts disabled
Fatal trap 9: general protection fault in kernel mode
<pointers, &etc>
processor eflags = resume, IOPL = 0
current process = Idle
interrupt mask = net tty bio cam
trap number = 9
panic: general protection fault
Uptime: 0s
My machine is a PIII-500 on an Asus P2B-S motherboard. I have 128MB of
RAM and 2 Video Cards installed. I am using using a 'dc0' type NIC. I
suspect the problem is in the build process (or some residual flag),
because I can boot kernel.GENERIC from the 4.0-RELEASE without a hitch.
If someone would be interested in giving me a hand with this, I would be
happy to send them my config files, &etc.
