After recompiling/installing world and debug-kernel, I again get a kernel deadlock when using swapfile: http://surfion.snu.ac.kr/~lahaye/swapfile2.txt Previous deadlocks are still documented here http://surfion.snu.ac.kr/~lahaye/swapfile.txt I hope this is of use for fixing this bug in 6. If further investigation is needed, then please let me know. Regards, Rob. __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors' Choice 2005 http://mail.yahoo.com
