FC2 kernel oops, panic
by David Kewley
A machine I managed crashed today. The console (25 lines) indicated a
kernel fault in an interrupt handler. After reboot, two pre-crash
kernel oopses were in the log (see attached). The commonality between
the two seems to be a spin_lock being already locked in mm/slab.c.
The oops times were 10:43 and 11:01; the machine crashed somewhere
between 11:01 and 11:10 judging by /var/log/cron (how can I get a more
accurate time of crash?).
This machine is running FC2 kernel 2.6.8-1.521 #1 Mon Aug 16 09:01:18
EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386. The machine had been up for about two weeks
(when it was first put in service with this OS installation), and there
was no apparent unusual activity on it today. It's an NFS fileserver.
Any ideas? Is this likely a problem in the kernel, or with my hardware?
Thanks,
David

What does anaconda know?
by Ralf Ertzinger
Hi.
I was wondering about the knowledge anaconda has about the machine
it is currently installing on.
Surely it knows the general architecture (i386/ppc/sparc). It also
knows the specific subarch (586/686). It knows about RAM and hard disks.
Does it known if the machine is a laptop or not? Maybe even a specific
model?
The reason I am asking is that during the first boot on my iBook I noticed
that a number of services was started that were completely useless on this
machine, because the hardware these services care for is nonexistant (and,
this being a notebook, can not be added, either).
The services I remember of the top of my head were pcmcia, apm and a bunch
of stuff provided by the iprtools package (some SCSI mumbo jumbo, it seems).
Would it be possible to teach anaconda the knowledge to disable services on
machines that have no chance of needing them, ever?

I was written bash script for rebuild my fedora core distro.
The principles of script is very easy:
1. Checks installed in my system packages for "demonlinux" hostname.
You may set other search options, arch for example.
2. Extract source filename for each package and download from mirrors to rpm src folder.
3. Rebuild each downloaded src.rpm.
If you want, i may send to you sources.

latest rawhide kernel 2.6.9-1.640 and suspend to disk
by Paul Ionescu
Hi,
I just upgraded to latest rawhide kernel (the one which should be in FC3)
and I noticed that suspend to disk is not compiled in (an echo 4 >
/proc/acpi/sleep does nothing).
Will we have suspend to disk compiled in the final FC3 kernel ?
Suspend to ram is working.
