Hello, I am finding stability problems running the 2.4.20-30.7.legacy kernel on Redhat 7.3. The problems seem to be more prevalent on Intel Bayfield hardware. On a test system, I have updated the BIOS, removed all non essential loadable modules (lm_sensors, scsi-ide) and tried stopping non essential services, but the system will still crash once every 2 days or so. Attached below is the crash information captured via a serial console connection. Is this information useful as is, or should I provide more details? Best Regards johnny [root@SR007777 root]# ksymoops < crash7 ksymoops 2.4.4 on i686 2.4.20-30.7.legacy. Options used -V (default) -k /proc/ksyms (default) -l /proc/modules (default) -o /lib/modules/2.4.20-30.7.legacy/ (default) -m /boot/System.map-2.4.20-30.7.legacy (default) Warning: You did not tell me where to find symbol information. I will assume that the log matches the kernel and modules that are running right now and I'll use the default options above for symbol resolution. If the current kernel and/or modules do not match the log, you can get more accurate output by telling me the kernel version and where to find map, modules, ksyms etc. ksymoops -h explains the options. Error (expand_objects): cannot stat(/lib/ext3.o) for ext3 ksymoops: No such file or directory Error (expand_objects): cannot stat(/lib/jbd.o) for jbd ksymoops: No such file or directory Warning (map_ksym_to_module): cannot match loaded module ext3 to a unique module object.
