I've noticed something strange in 2.2.14pre18 and 2.3.35, file
asm/i386/boot/compressed/head.S, at line 56, I think it's a typo :
pushl 0 # Clear NT
popfl
Shouldn't this be "pushl $0" instead of "pushl 0" ?
Blame me if I'm wrong, but for me "pushl 0" pushes the address of the
int 0 handler instead of the value 0 so the flag contents may be
unpredictable. Only the SMP code is concerned.
Just my 2 cents ...
Best Wishes,
Willy
