This bug seems to be present since 2.6.22 [1], so hope we can get this
fixed ASAP. Let me know if you have patch suggestions I can test.

This crashes very early, I had to use earlyprintk to get it.


I've put extra spaces between the culprit.

Sure enough, our old friend.

You have in your configuration:

CONFIG_M686=y
# CONFIG_X86_GENERIC is not set

... so this is fully expected; CONFIG_M686 without CONFIG_X86_GENERIC is not compatible with such processors.

Not a bug.
