It has happened again . I've searched thru the System.map
file and found which area the EIP: value is in.
EIP: 0010:[<0010ec8e>]
^^^^^^^^
Is in: 0010ec3c t do_fast_timeoffset
Background:
---------------------
AMD5x86-90, 64MB memory,
Cirrus(based) cl-gd5446 pci video
asus ncr53c810(based) scsi pci,
disks 1-st11200n, 1-st41200n,
an el-cheapo ne-2000 compat ether,
1-nec ide atapi cd-rom.
- Linux-2.0.20, upgraded from Slackware-3.1.0 (IE: slackware/96)
- bind-4.9.4-P1, with Tamas Nyitrai's patches to create the
libresolv.so.4.9.4.2 for ELF.
- net-tools-1.32-alpha.
- perl-5.003
---------------------
All of the output below is from an OLD patched upgrade of
a slackware 3.0.0 system to 2.0.18. But is still pertinent
in context.
