BUG report for vmguest5 on Mon Apr 9 07:00:32 EDT 2001

[1.] One line summary of the problem:
Kernel oops with 2.4.3+LIDS running under VMWare

[2.] Full description of the problem/report:

The machine that crashed is a RedHat 7.0 virtual host running under VMWare 2.0.3 on a RedHat 6.2 base host. The virtual host has 2.4.3 with LIDS 1.0.7. This report is on the virtual host that includes LIDS.

Over the weekend, I had two VMs running on my Linux box (RH 6.2 with 2.4.3), but apparently there is an issue with vmware and 2.4.3 SMP. The box locked up (base O/S). Note, 2.4.3 seems much better than 2.4.1 for vmware lockups with 2 VMs, but still I don't recommend it, yet. This is a separate issue and I have yet to get an oops I can report. This will be a separate report....

This morning, I rebooted the base O/S, then once it was up and functioning properly, I started the test VM with LIDS. The test VM started booting, then came to the login prompt. It then started running slocate, etc. A few minutes after booting, I got the OOPS.

[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
kernel 2.4.3, VMWare, LIDS

[4.] Kernel version (from /proc/version):
Linux version 2.4.3 (root@vmguest5) (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.0)) #3 Fri Apr 6 10:40:10 EDT 2001

[5.] Output of Oops.. message (if applicable) with symbolic information
resolved (see Documentation/oops-tracing.txt)
