Hello from Gregg C Levine I don't know why, Andrew, but the patch your company supplied via
the
FTP site, for the 2.4.19 kernel, applied correctly, and I was able
to
build the kernel. But the expected event didn't work. When I issued
a
"kexec kernel.elf", which was built using the latest version of mkelfImage from the FTP site, that Eric has for his company, I got
the
same expected output as before. Here it is: Script started on Sun Aug 10 21:11:01 2003 root@drwho4:/usr/src/lobos/work# kexec kernel.elf kexec_load failed: Function not implemented entry = (nil) nr_segments = 4 segment[0].buf = 0x80a8ea0 segment[0].bufsz = 158 segment[0].mem = (nil) segment[0].memsz = 158 segment[1].buf = 0x80a3888 segment[1].bufsz = 559c segment[1].mem = 0x10000 segment[1].memsz = 1aa24 segment[2].buf = 0x80a8e28 segment[2].bufsz = 0 segment[2].mem = 0x91000 segment[2].memsz = 70 segment[3].buf = 0x40001008 segment[3].bufsz = b48dc segment[3].mem = 0x100000 segment[3].memsz = 700000 root@drwho4:/usr/src/lobos/work# exit Script done on Sun Aug 10 21:11:12 2003
Incidentally that's the same thing that I got before. Did this function work for you? What distribution did you use for building your kernel, and, ah,
test
system? As it happens, this is built using Slackware 8.0, with the compiler version as 2.95.3, and the binary utilities at 2.10.90. Do I need to upgrade them for attempting to build the later kernels?
