Bug 268562 – sys-kernel/vserver-sources-2.2.0.7 won't boot on AMD64 commpiled with sys-devel/gcc-4.3.2

• Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Anton Bolshakov 2009-05-04 06:54:25 UTC]

I've applied a patch mentioned in the bug #255448 and compiled kernel on amd64.
However, it just hangs after "unpacking" message without any logs. I don't have physical access to the box, so please let me know how can I help to provide more useful information about it.

Since it's not clear if the patch from bug #255448 is incomplete or it's different issue I'm linking these two for now.

[Comment 2 Anton Bolshakov 2009-05-05 07:14:20 UTC]

I would really appreciate if someone could loot at it rather urgent since it affects running live stable vserver ...

[Comment 3 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) 2009-05-05 09:29:24 UTC]

Anton, I suggest you to build this kernel with gcc-4.1 and test it. All further explanations are in bug 255448.

[Comment 4 Anton Bolshakov 2009-05-30 01:27:32 UTC]

ok, recompiled it with gcc 4.1 back and it started to work again. 
Ebuild should reflect it.
