I'm developing a kernel module I want to debug using UML, so I tried to recompile UML from source. After recompiling, the new kernel gets a little way into the boot, then it hangs after saying 'I'm tracing myself and I can't get out'. The UML from the rpm works fine by the way. I'm using version 2.4.17 with root_fs from root_fs_tomrtbt_1.7.205.bz2. My host kernel is 2.4.2-2 on a Pentium II laptop. I compiled as follows: tar xfj linux-2.4.17.tar.bz2 cd linux bzip2 -dc uml-patch-2.4.17-12.bz2 | patch -p1 make xconfig ARCH=um make linux ARCH=um All completed OK. Running the new kernel: linux/linux ...Usual stuff, then Mounted devfs on /dev INIT: version 2.60 booting EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended I'm tracing myself and I can't get out I tried running with the debug option, but at the point the kernel hangs gdb hangs too and won't respond to ^C. The only way out is to kill the trace process. If there a way to fix this? Thanks, Mike Wray (mik...@hp...) |
