thanks, i fixed it. in the meantime you can disable CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K to get it to boot.

root@testing:/boot# grep CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K config-2.6.33
# CONFIG_X86_RESERVE_LOW_64K is not set
root@testing:/boot#
didnt helped
still "booting the kernel" and nothing more

still "booting the kernel" and nothing more

can you try the latest PaX test patch? if that still fails, i'll need your bzImage/vmlinux.

you'll need to fix your .config when moving from grsec to PaX, it's been discussed many times on the forum ;P.

fix what in the config ?
