Hello,

this is a warning!

I have several solaris8 afs-1.2.8 clients.

Today i again applied the "8_Recommended" PatchCluster from SunSolve.

After that my suns crashed at boottime when trying load the afs-kernel-
module:

...
  Loading AFS kernel extensions

  panic[cpu0]/thread=300023dd700: BAD TRAP: type=34 rp=2a1005114e0 addr=3 
mmu_fsr=0

  modload: alignment error:
...


I then tried with the solaris8-afs-1.2.9 binaries from openafs.org
and failed with a similar "modload alignment error".


In the end i removed (patchrm) the new kernel-patch  108528-21
(and 8 other depending patches) and with the "old"   108528-18
my machines now are running fine again.


With regards,

Bernt Christandl
