I compiled gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r2 without any changes from my prior 2.4.20 (vanilla-sources) configuration. With this config the kernel crashes when running mprime program (gimps/mersenne.org). When trying to use the preemptive flag from gentoo-sources, i can't start the system, depmod will result with dependencies failures, so no modules can be loaded (and i need the at least the lvm module, i'm using lvm and all partitions except / (root part.) are stored in lvm segments) I'm using the 2.4.20 (vanilla sources) config run make menuconfig and save the new configuration without any manual changes (of course there are some other additions from the gentoo-sources patches) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3.

please try with gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r3. Thanks, Jay
well, without further info. cannot fix. please reopen when you have (if you have) more info and/or gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r3 did not solve your issue. Thanks, Jay
I tried gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r3. First the kernel still crashed After using a kernel config with processor family AthlonXP (gcc>31) the kernel was ok - no crashes (i think mersenne/gimp wasn't the problem!) Only starting gshield resulted in a warning of wrong iptables parameters (i think the iptables modules changed) I switched back to vanilla-source 2.4.20 and patched the kernel sources myself Thanks, Thomas
