Re: can't boot 2.6.17-rc1



     Hi! I've done some hard work, even if i think there's somthing strange..
that simple pointer initialization shouldn't do all this. But i
shouldn't have make mistakes. Hope this helps.

At least, i hope the attempt will be appreciated.
Best regards,
CataEnry

    [PATCH] spufs: initialize context correctly

    the mfc member of a new context was not initialized to zero,
    which potentially leads to wild memory accesses.
