Your question highlighted a typo in my original question: "reboot" should have been "boot" The crash occurs when I boot (or just turn-on) while packets are arriving. The initial hunch was that I begin to handle packets before initializations are complete, but the oops does not seem to be around the driver's code. > -----Original Message----- > From: kernelnewbies-bounce@nl.linux.org > [mailto:kernelnewbies-bounce@nl.linux.org]On Behalf Of Zwane Mwaikambo > Sent: Tuesday, July 30, 2002 11:31 AM > To: Gilad & Yael > Cc: kernelnewbies@nl.linux.org > Subject: Re: SIGBUG in unaligned.c > > > On Sun, 28 Jul 2002, Gilad & Yael wrote: > > > I am developing a network driver for 2.4.17 on a mips > > machine.
