1.3.77 didn't fix my file corruption problem.
system: P166, 32mb, Buslogic BT-948, fast SCSI drive with one partition (1.8gb).
i didn't get any messages in my /var/adm/debug (*.debug in syslong.conf), or on my tty12 (also *.debug), for any of these corruptions.
a) i tried to build a kernel and it bombed on line 160 of pgtable.h ... here are the relevant lines:
*** begin clip *** "lock\n\t" \ "btsl $0, "SYMBOL_NAME_STR(kernel_flag)"\n\t" \ "jnc 3f\n\t" \ "cmpb "SYMBOL_NAME_STR(activeries per page directory level: the i386 is two-level, so * we don't really have any PMD directory physically. */ #define PTRS_PER_PTE 1024 #define PTRS_PER_PMD 1 #define PTRS_PER_PGD 1024 *** end clip ***
b) after that i attempted to reunpack/patch the kernel:
tar -zxf linux-1.3.75.tar.gz ; patch -p -s < patch-1.3.76; patch -p -s < patch-1.3.77 4 out of 4 hunks failed--saving rejects to linux/net/ipv4/tcp_input.c.rej
c) deleted the tree, reexecuted the above and got no messages. compiled the kernel. booted with the kernel. worked fine.
thanks, -- garth
