problems running l4linux No.2

[Stefan Kögel]

Hi,

I started from a default l4linux26 kernel config. I did not touch
anything, except for the things I had to, like acpi, apic, MTRR, MCE ..
and the stuff that is missing (olpc, scx200 and these things).
Everything else is default.
The problem still exists but I was able to gather some info.

Executing the l4linux26.cfg prints out:

and continues untiel physical address 0x9fff0 and ends with a lock up of
the computer.

I am wondering about these lines:

ROOT: Task #0c is not allowed to execute cli/sti
loader  | vmlinuz,#11: WARNING: Can't map I/O space, ROOT denies page
(result=0
loader  : 0004000)
loader  | vmlinuz,#11: Not allowed to perform any I/O

Could that be causing the error? How can I fix this?

Thank you for help.
Kind Regards,
Stefan
