The cause seems to be the fnop() that has been added in npxprobe1() (in i386/isa/npx.c) since 2.0-RELEASE. (I am running 950210-SNAP now). It works just fine if you comment out the fnop(). My machine is an old 386 (Chips&Technologies chipset, AMI BIOS, and no math co-processor). (Sorry for not sending this to whoever is hacking on npx.c but I don't know how to find out who is hacking on what, if anyone want to fill me in on how to figure that out, please do.) /Sebastian ----------------------------------------------------------- Sebastian Strollo Computer Science Lab Phone: +46 8 727 3549 Ellemtel Utvecklings AB Fax : +46 8 647 82 76 Box 1505 S-125 25 ALVSJO email: seb@erix.ericsson.se SWEDEN -----------------------------------------------------------
