Jack, After some more testing it appears that kdb on Opteron requires CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y. If I do the following:
make defconfig after applying the kdb patches, I get a kernel that won't boot. (It triple faults after "Freeing unused kernel memory....") The above config has CONFIG_HOTPLUG not set. If I edit the .config file to turn CONFIG_HOTPLUG on, then make oldconfig make I get a kernel that works and kdb will start, etc. Make any sense to you? -- Ray Bryant AMD Performance Labs Austin, Tx 512-602-0038 (o) 512-507-7807 (c) --------------------------- Use http://oss.sgi.com/ecartis to modify your settings or to unsubscribe.
