hi all,
whenever I try to create a root-image on a ram-disk I get an Oops when loading
the compressed image: "null pointer dereference" and the system blocks :(
seems to be a problem of the " drivers/block/rd.c" - this is where the error
occurs:
memset(buf, 0xe5, size);
/*
* Read block 0 to test for gzipped kernel
*/
==> if (fp->f_op->llseek)
fp->f_op->llseek(fp, start_block * BLOCK_SIZE, 0);
fp->f_pos = start_block * BLOCK_SIZE;
fp->f_op->read(fp, buf, size, &fp->f_pos);
any hints ?
regards
ralf
