Hi,

I have been using for ages a script that checks all my installed rpms
and update them if a newer version is available. That thing checks the
all 1800 installed packages in 1 minute on this machine so it uses
rpmquery intensively.

After few loops, kernel-2.4.13-6mdk panics:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address bfffc0fc
Process rpmq
Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler
In interrupt handler - not syncing.

It goes smoothly with 2.4.13-4mdk. The machine is a 400 MHz PII with
256M RAM.

BTW, why is the shortcut to /usr/lib/rpm/rpmq called rpmquery? Why not
call it rpmq? It would be much faster to type.
