Booting error of L4Linux enabled SMP surpport

[Xiefeng (Stephen)]

Hi,
I have a low-level mistake. The panic is not relate to SMP. 
Before I use x86-mp_vPCI_defconfig as smp config file, I use x86-native_defconfig as unicore config file.
x86-mp_vPCI_defconfig do not enable CONFIG_EXT2 _FS, only enable CONFIG_EXT3_FS, and x86-native_defconfig also do not enable CONFIG_EXT2 _FS , but it enable CONFIG_EXT4_FS.

When loading ramdisk(EXT2 FILE SYSTEM), L4Linux which use x86-mp_vPCI_defconfig do not find the ramdisk, so kernel panic happened. When i enable CONFIG_EXT4_FS, it is OK.

Would you mind sharing the reason and of course the solution with the community?

Thanks,
