From: joel@wam.umd.edu (Joel M. Hoffman) Subject: mkswap crashes Date: Tue, 11 Feb 1992 04:46:36 GMT
I just got Linux installed on my HD, and tried mkswap. But all it
does is crash with:
general protection: 0000
.
.
.
segmentation fault
It does this no matter what arguments I use it with, or even with none.
I got both the kernel and mkswap from tsx-11 a few days ago. Is there
a patch I have to apply? Where might I find it?
I have a Dell 325D (386 at 25MHz) with 2M and a 125 HD, partitioned
into 80M for DOS, 20 for Linux, and 5 for swap (I hope).
I'd try to recompile mkswap, but without the extra swap space for
GCC.... :-)
Thanks in advance for any help.
