Hmm. The "Badness at smp.c" warning isn't new of course. That was also there with .24 and .26 (the last working kernel I have). What is new is that the boot now hangs immediately after that point. I also note the following in the boot messages: unwind_init: start = 0x404b9144, end = 0x404e5204, entries = 11276 WARNING: Out of order unwind entry! 00000000404bb0c4 and 00000000404bb0d4 WARNING: Out of order unwind entry! 00000000404bb0d4 and 00000000404bb0e4 But those were also present in .26 (though later in the boot). What's very strange is that for the .30-smp boot the following block is missing: On node 0 totalpages: 524288 Normal zone: 7168 pages used for memmap Normal zone: 0 pages reserved Normal zone: 517120 pages, LIFO batch:31 Movable zone: 0 pages used for memmap Especially as it is present in both .26-smp, but also in .30-up. Attached, for comparison, boot logs for .24-smp, .26-smp, .30-smp and .30-up. If needed I can build kernels for intermediate versions between .26 and .30. Cheers, FJP
