[User-mode-linux-user] 'Double fault on ...' panic

[Gord R. L. <gl...@uf...>]

Hi everyone,

Sorry if this question has been asked before (didn't see it in the faqs or
list archive), but I'm having an interesting problem running the
user mode linux kernel.

It seems to be panicing shortly after init starts:

<snip>
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Mounted devfs on /dev
INIT: version 2.76 booting
Kernel panic: Double fault on 0xbffff874 - panicing because it wasn't
fixed the first time
</snip>

It happens with both 2.4.0-pre1 and -pre2, running under host kernels
2.2.16 and 2.4.0-pre2.  Also, I've tried two different systems (one
uniprocessor, the other with 2 processors).

I've tried the debian and slackware (small/large) root fs's.

Any suggestions?
