[coLinux-users] coLinux-0.7.1-20070101 crash my Vista after linux halted.

[Wisut H. <wi...@gm...>]

I do install coLinux-0.7.1-20070101 with default option and run

"colinux-daemon kernel=vmlinux initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/ram0"

from the command prompt . coLinux is running fine. I can see the
initrd file system and do "ls", "cd" command and so on.

BUT after call "halt" command it is seem that coLinux was shutdown. I
saw something like "System Halted" and then suddenly there is BLUE
SCREEN of death say some thing like

STOP: 0x0000008e (0xC0000046 ....

I wish I can provide you more infomation but I don't know how to do.
Please suggess me the way to capture the error if you want it.

Error always happen after "halt" command was called.
I am using windows vista rtm ultimate edition.

Wisut.

root=/dev/ram0 seems a little odd. What do you expect to be there?

Usually you would have something like:
root=/dev/cobd0
cobd0=E:\colinux_test\filesystem.img

Then i guess, this is the nx-Bit problem.
Wisut, which processor do you use?

Not really.  I was able to confirm the problem on our Vista test machine
which is pre nx-Bit hardware.
  I was able to duplicate the problem, even after exempting coLinux
binaries from Vista's 'software' nx-Bit functionality. :(  Looks like we
have a real problem here. :(

initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/ram0
is ok for running a minimal linux from intrd.  The root filesystem is 
the initrd self.

Re: [coLinux-users] Fwd: coLinux-0.7.1-20070101 crash my Vista after linux halted.

I think I should share this ugly workaround to the group. And yes the
halt problem exist only under Vista. I do try the same on my laptop
with windows xp and there is no problem. Thank to Norton Ghost allowed
me to restore my Vista without reinstalling.

This kind of mess is what normally happened when you move to Vista. I
wish you make coLinux be a Vista Ready soon. :)

I think I had similiar problems testing on Vista.  I think I solved it
by adding colinux-daemon.exe and linux.sys to the Vista's Software DEP
exception list.  I forget where that's at speifically, but it's like
under start-up options or something.

Have you tried that?

Add colinux-daemon to DEP exception don't solve my problem. What
colinux version are you using in vista ? Can you write a step-by-step
installation guide for me ?

Have you ever try calling "colinux-daemon kernel=vmlinux
initrd=initrd.gz root=/dev/ram0" (it will boot to the initrd system
with busybox shell) and then "halt" in that linux shell ?
