Because I use ibm405cr.c which works good with 2.4.23 I think that's not the problem. Remember the call stack? setup_arch() - arch/ppc/kernel/setup.c -> ocp_early_init() - arch/ppc/syslib/ocp.c -> ocp_add_one_device() - arch/ppc/syslib/ocp.c -> alloc_bootmem MACRO calling __alloc_bootmem_core() - mm/bootmem.c When I comment line calling ocp_early_init() I fail in: setup_arch() - arch/ppc/kernel/setup.c -> paging_init() - arch/ppc/mm/init.c -> free_area_init() - arch/ppc/mm/page_alloc.c -> free_area_init_node() - arch/ppc/mm/page_alloc.c -> alloc_bootmem_node() MACRO calling __alloc_bootmem_node - mm/bootmem.c -> __alloc_bootmem_core() - mm/bootmem.c As you can see again __alloc_bootmem_core. So maybe there's some problem with memory? Forgive me if I ask stupid questions, but this the first time I have something to do with the kernel (not counting compiling for my home PC).
