[PATCH] mtd: parser: cmdline: Support MTD names containing one or more colons

2020-04-29 Thread Ronald G. Minnich
From: Boris Brezillon Looks like some drivers define MTD names with a colon in it, thus making mtdpart= parsing impossible. Let's fix the parser to gracefully handle that case: the last ':' in a partition definition sequence is considered instead of the first one. Signed-off-by: Boris Brezillon

if there is any chance of getting along without ACPI entries that is best. Linux did do this once already, for SMP K8: K8 can boot and run NUMA without an SRAT table. What more is needed for dual core, and could Linux support in this area be extended? ron - To unsubscribe from this list: send

2.4.0-test11 scsi failure in linuxbios, L440GX

2000-12-01 Thread Ronald G Minnich
Here's the oops. This is an AIC7xxx controller. This is a non-SMP kernel, and there is only one processor installed in the machine. The value in eax sure looks weird too me, esp. given that the failing instruction involves a ld from (%eax) This is a va2200 node, and this same kernel has booted
