Hi,

I am having trouble booting a newly compiled kernel - 
(the old 2.2.19 kernel boots fine though)
it either hangs at

'VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem)
readonly. Freeing kernel memory (200k)'

or

init: error in loading shared libraries
/lib/libc.so.6 Undefined symbol:
__io_file_setbuf, version GLIBC_2.1
kernel panic: attempted to kill init'

I suspect that there might be a resource conflict
between devices on the PCI bus (the root fs hangs off
a device on the PCI bus) and so when Linux tries to access
the root filesystem it dies (a guess). Looking at /proc/pci, I get
a warning at the bottom:

warning: page-size limit reached!

Is this indicative of a resource conflict? 

The kernel was compiled with PCI access mode 'any'
- I'm wondering whether it will help to choose 'Direct'...

Any suggestions?

cheers,

Campbell
