Ahh... That may take a little time, then. I can certainly prepare another kernel for testing with high memory support turned off, and try to do some tests at the end of business on friday. It might have to wait a little longer, though. I'll see what they're willing to schedule, and get you results when I can. > If you have a chance to reconfigure the failing system temporarily, > running what you did before should reproduce the same problems (segfault > on snapshot creation after fresh reboot) in case there's _no_ bug in the > large/high memory support. > My assumption is that it will not. So, just for clarification, on the system where I am having this problem, all you want me to do is run a kernel without high memory support and attempt the snapshot creation? Unfortunately, the way the system was assembled, the smallest I can physically reduce the RAM to is 4GB (two DIMMS on each memory carrier is the minimum required for the system to boot, and they shipped it to us with 8 1GB DIMMS.)
