The bottom line somehow the writing of the header is not being done
correctly. If it's fdisk or something related to the kernel, that's what
I'm trying to determine.
So let's start from the very beginning.
If you have an existing system that works, and you run a gcc-4.1
compiled kernel on it, does that work?
It works, but if the paritition is was created by a fdisk compiled with
GCC 4.1, it will give the checksum error during bootup. It just hangs,
the kernel works fine, but if you are using udev, this error prevents
the kernel from creating devices in /dev.
With everything I've discovered, and not my team, tonight. The problem
is actually a util-linux issue and not a kernel issue. The issue is that
util-linux doesn't generate a proper sun disk label, when it's built
with GCC 4.1.
