Because of that address the kernel is giving a sig 11 panic. > > vm_start = 0x10011000 vm_end = 0x10219000 Address = 0x101e9000 > > vm_start = 0x10011000 vm_end = 0x10219000 Address = 0x101ea000 > > vm_start = 0x10011000 vm_end = 0x10219000 Address = 0x101eb000 > > vm_start = 0x10000000 vm_end = 0x10001000 Address = 0x00000024 > > Oops: kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 > > < ... more dump ....> Can someone explain this? -- Kernelnewbies: Help each other learn about the Linux kernel.
