Kernel Panic on concurrent network and usb storage [SOLVED]

[Jancis]

this helped me too. just wget-ed kernel to /boot, backed up old kernel.img and renamed this to kernel.img

Gobo's kernel:

thank you a lot!

I got a similar problem with the kernel panic - problem relied on the usb keyboard, was defective. Just changed to a new one, bang! problem solved.

my 2 cents

[ptbw]

The new kernel appears to have solved the issue I was having writing to a NAS mounted as NFS. The kernel would panic after the network traffic started to rise.

The new kernel is a lot better. Not only have the kernel panics gone away, but network throughput has also increased. I can now transfer files to my Raspi at over 500Kb/s.

I also experienced the problem. Rebuilding the current kernel from the git repo, as explained here http://elinux.org/Rpi_kernel_compilation fixed it for me! Yay!

Thanks!

I've got a working kernel at http://positron.dckd.nl/~jeroen/stuff/r ... kernel.img

Download that one, backup kernel.img on your RPi SD image, and place the one you downloaded in its place (so rename it to kernel.img)

Thank you! I have been suffering from what I assume is a related problem (RPi drops off the network when downloading large files over ethernet and storing on a USB drive). After trying various things your kernel is the first thing that's helped.

What does this kernel has different from the one in github or the one in the archlinux repo?

I've tried both (using archlinux repo and rpi-update), and I (and many people more) still get this problem, so I don't think this should be marked has solved.

best regards

We have the same problem discussed in this thread:
http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/viewt ... 431#p97431

I'm going to try if it solves this problems...

One question, the kernel from positron.dckd.nl/~jeroen/stuff/rpi-ipv6-kernel.img is the same as compiling the new kernel ourselves?

Edit: My wireless card does not work with this kernel... its a zydas 1211rw chipset... I cannot test it... Any idea on how to make it work on this kernel?

This kernel will not solve your problem @errikos if you have updated your system with rpi-update or if you use arch linux, which has an updated repository. The patch this kernel contains has already been commited in the official github repo of raspberrypi, so it won't make any difference to you...unfortunately.
