Re: Immediate general protection errors on Tyan board

I just got it working over the weekend. The machine had an Adaptec 29320 64-bit PCI card driving a SCSI HD. It was removed, and the drive replaced with a Serial ATA drive, and it came up fine.

There were probably a lot of variables that were changed by removing the card, but I'm wondering if anyone has experienced the same symptoms with any 64-bit PCI card installed on this board.

Immediately upon boot on this system, most userland programs will segfault, including mount. This causes the system to come up in a bizarre state with the root filesystem mounted read-only, and nothing runs without segfault. There have been numerous similar posts about this problem, but they also seem to point to an associated kernel message, "Bad page state" that I don't observe. dmesg (which runs without segfault) returns many similar messages to:

start_udev[576] general protection rip:2aaaaae0fc70 rsp:7fffffb23d90 error:0


echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space - Seems to fix it for most people.

See http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4851 for more details.
