When I checked the diff file, I was not able to tell anything significant.
Maybe, Andrea probably can identify the culprit.
I did not keep .config for 2.4.17-rc2aa1.
Here is .config that I used to compile 2.4.17-rc2aa2:
One point which I can't remember clearly is whether I set SMP=on or not on
2.4.17-rc2aa1. The machine had originally two CPUs. About three months
ago, one CPU died, and I took it out. However, I was not able to boot it
with SMP=off because I did not turn off DISCONTIGUOUS MEMORY SUPPORT at
the same time.
So, at this point, I do not remember whether I turned SMP off or not for
2.4.17-rc2aa1.
Thank you.
Best regards,
G. Hugh Song
