Borker Tov Kulam,
It seems that there are growing reports that the 2.4.21 kernel breaks
the IDE DMA on SIS and VIA chipsets. I saw information about it in a
couple of forums I regularly visit. I'm not sure how concrete the info
is, but I'd suggest that anyone going 2.4.21 do so with caution.

Thread says,
mem=nopentium
Others say,
mem=nonpentium
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt says,
there's no such kernel parameter...
Which is the correct? (or, if it exists? and if so, why isn't it documented?)

Yes, I also went to grep and google a bit, and I agree it should
% cd /usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.20
% find -name \*.c | xargs egrep '(nopentium|nonpentium)'
/arch/i386/kernel/setup.c: * mem=nopentium disables the 4MB page tables.
/arch/i386/kernel/setup.c: if (!memcmp(from+4, nopentium, 9)) {
I think this gives a definitive
and nother Segfault, now on a specific message.
gdb provided the following.
Your help will be appreciated.
