That might be too large a range for developers to consider. Can you
test some versions between 2.6.35.7 and 2.6.38.6 (bisection)?
OK, after another day of testing it seems that the problem appears in
2.6.38.1, because
* linux 2.6.37.6 - custom compiled from source - ok
* linux 2.6.38.1 - custom compiled from source - not ok
On Ben's advice I am trying to locate the commit that causes the problem
to appear more precisely using 'git bisect'. However, too many of
generated revisions are unbootable so I have to use 'bisect skip'
frequently. I started with 4059 revisions to test (roughly 12 steps) and
after 15 steps I still have 2902 revisions to test (rougly 12 steps).
Is there any way to speed this process up? I tried to do bisection
manually but I do not understand git enough to be able to do this
efficiently.
My current bisect log is below.
