Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address (was: %openmosix and sata)

Hi Felipe and Gianluca,
	I've a problem with NULL pointer addresses as well.  However I think the 
problem is older than the recent attempts to port openmosix to 2.4.3x for 
SATA reasons.
	I also think there is an interaction between openmosix and more recent 
versions of GCC.  Earlier versions of openMosix and GCC do not cause a 
problem for me.  Please see the summary below.  "Failure" mean I received a 
NULL pointer dereference:

om patch	gcc	result
2.4.24-2	3.3.6	success
2.4.24-2	3.4.5	failure
2.4.26		3.3.6	failure after extended testing
2.4.26		3.4.5	failure

	So maybe try compiling the kernel with an older compiler?
	See this message in the mailing list archives for an (incomplete?) history of 
openmosix and the NULL pointer dereference

Good luck,
	C.
