Hello,
I still encounter the kernel panic. I first deleted the ipv6.ko, ran depmod
and rebooted. Nothing changed. Than I recompiled the kernel without any ipv6
support, and still I get the kernel panic. Dont know what to do at all. I
cant give you any logs, because the panics dont get logged. Im getting sad
:(
Thanks,
Thomas
