Hi,
for some unfathomable to me reason, the commit in $Subject breaks booting of the 32-bit partition of one of my test boxes. The box doesn't finish booting (normally it boots in text mode, there is no X server setup on it) but it is still responsible in the sense that I can reboot it with the Sysrq combination. No other keystrokes have effect.
Is "text mode" actual vga text mode or linux console @ fbcon? What display hardware do you have?
Can you ssh into the machine? If so, can you grab a kernel log please? If not please send a kernel log of a boot with the patch reverted.
thanks, Gerd
