Title: Pdaxii13 : Kernel Crash When E2fsck On Boot
Post by: ulutte on July 31, 2007, 05:11:00 pm

Hi,

I tried to make an automated e2fsck on my ext2 /dev/mmcda2 partition on boot (in the script "/etc/sdcard/sd_mem_ctrl2". The check was running without problem. But after in the boot sequence, when launching CF services, I had some kernel page fault errors in dmesg. I could not make any connection between the two but the problem was deterministic : by uncommenting the e2fsck, the oopses disappeared...very strange.

Someone experimented such behavior ? May have done some mistake ?

More generally, is the 2.6 kernel stable on the Zaurus ? ; especially with respect to the SD driver (no more timeouts ?).

Thanks for your feedback,
Ulutte.

Hey,

It is stable to some :-), but as noted both r121 and r198 are TEST releases, we are currently working stablizing the 2.6 kernel series as I type (working on major changes now  )

Stay tuned for more updates...  and look for a pdaXrom roadmap in the near future
