Hi,
I'm trying to get Dell Latitude laptop to NFS boot. The machine resets
itself in kcopy (called from uiomove from nfs_bioread).
When I drop into debugger just before final "rep movsl" (%esi is c2d6b000)
db> !vtophys(c2d6b000)
0
db> print *c2d6b000
[the laptop resets]
Could you explain why would it happen?
I can imagine that access to nonexistent physical memory can cause that,
but that page isn't even mapped, right?
Greetings,
Witold J. Wnuk
PS: starting /bin/sh from floppy does work
