Some of our machines are getting the following error message on the
console and are locking up tight.
Kernel panic: skput : over: nnnnnnnn:nnn
In swapper task - not syncing
I have checked both machines and can find no other error messages as
to why it is crashing. I can't recall the exact value of nnnnnnnnn:nnn.
Here is the machine configuration and .config file used to build the
kernels. If further details will help determine the source of the
problem, please e-mail me directly.
One machine hardware config is as follows:
Dual Pentium Pro 200MHz
256M RAM
Buslogic Model BT-958 PCI Wide Ultra SCSI Host Adapter
5 SEAGATE ST34572W (4 Gig) drives
3COM 3c509 Ethernet Card
3COM 3c905 Boomerang Ethernet Card
The other machine harware config is as follows:
Dual Pentium II 300MHz
512M RAM
Buslogic Model BT-958 PCI Wide Ultra SCSI Host Adapter
1 SEAGATE ST34371W (4 Gig) drives
3COM 3c509 Ethernet Card
3COM 3c905 Boomerang Ethernet Card
Linux kernel .config file for both machines looks like:
