Subject: [suse-sparc] Kernel 2.4.20

    Dear listmembers,
    today I had an unexpected system crash - unfortunately I cannot give more
    than this information. The system froze entirely, the last messages in
    /var/log/warn:

    Dec 12 09:59:11 oekalux08 kernel: RPC: garbage, exit EIO
    Dec 12 09:59:11 oekalux08 kernel: nfs_read_super: get root_inode failed
    Dec 12 09:59:11 oekalux08 kernel: nfs warning: mount version older than
    kernel
    Dec 12 10:08:31 oekalux08 kernel: Unable to handle kernel request at virtual
    address 0000000000010000

    Then the reboot starts again. Other messages are:

    Error reading kernel symbols - Cannot allocate memory

    and
    kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k scsi_hostadapter, errno = 2

    The letter might be caused by the fact that the root - fs has not been
    mounted at that time. There are other messages I would not assume to be of
    significance this time. Any ideas? Help is highly appreciated. I have a
    feeling that there is somethin out of order with nfs. I use a Ultra 60 with
    dual processor.

    Many thanks in advance,

    take care

    Dieter Jurzitza
