[coLinux-devel] Interesting little bug

[Steven E. <ste...@ya...>]

Hello,
I am using the latest binary release off of sourceforge to do my
testing for ReactOS and I noticed this little bug. First a little
overview about my setup - I have CoLinux installed without the network
driver or a root file system. I only want to test loading the kernel at
this time for ReactOS so I dont really care about anything else.

1. Try to boot the CoLinux daemon.
2. The kernel will load and then bomb due to lack of a root file
system.
3. exit all the CoLinux programs and then go do something else.
4. wait a bit and then try to run make.exe from Mingw on a simple Win32
project.

At this point my Win2k workstation reboots.

Thanks
Steven

Sounds like memory corruption to me. Do you have debug facilities in ReactOS 
that allow you to track down stuff like this?

You did implement some sort of BSOD, right?

Yes but this problem is on Native Windows 2000 not ReactOS. I only had
it installed on this system in this configuration for use in ReactOS.

Thanks

Oh, missed the last line.

Machine specs, plus DebugView output of the run would be helpful.
