I got the 2.4.21-27.0.1.EL kernel to compile and boot successfully. USB
mouse breaks. I'm not running my box as an enterprise but am sandboxing
& preparing for such. I believe this ext3 hang up is either in NCPFS
area or one of the weird block modules. The dmesg diff for USB finagling
is attached as " usbdiffs ". Below is my .config diff. ~Nick

RE: possible ext3 stack overflow in 3.4
I am compiling a kernel via make menuconfig for performance tests and to
see how postconfigs / gcc-related programs operate. I switch ext3 so
it's built-in to kernel ( "*" instead of "M" ).
The usual compile and modules routines work. I make modules_install and
reboot, & get this:
( the following is a transcription; underscores are removed - is there a
bootlevel gpm hack for cut,paste,save routines? )
---
EIP @ kmem cache create kernel 0x2db
eax ebx ecx edx
esi edi ebp esp
ds 0068
es 0068
ss 0068
Process insmod
Call Trace mb cache create 0x15c
.rodata.str1.1
init ext3 xattr
.rodata.str1.1
init module
sys init module
ext3 get group desc
---
Group desc error? I didn't do anything foolish with my / perms, /boot is
Ok, this error happens after bios boot I can get specific if anyone who
may know what's going on here wants more info.
