Hello,

I've got it running my serial console. Full trace at boot time is :
SBF: Simple Boot Flag extension found and enabled.
SBF: Setting boot flags 0x1
cpufreq: P4/Xeon(TM) CPU On-Demand Clock Modulation available
divide error: 0000

*pte = 00000000
Oops: 0002
CPU: 0
EIP: 0060:[<c012ebcf>] Not tainted
EFLAGS: 00010006

and ksymoops says :

1 warning issued. Results may not be reliable.

Problem is that ksymoops seems to decode the paging request fault,
not the 0 divide error...

This comes from a plain 2.5.54 kernel, no patches applied.

Dominik, you told me last week, with 2.5.53, that a patch was to
be used.
Is it included in 2.5.54 ?
If not, forget this mail... just tell me, I'll apply the patch and
I'll tell you if it's better.

Regards,
Paul
