           Summary: kernel does not boot if it was installed with kernel
                    2.6.30
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 2.6.30
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: JFS
        AssignedTo: shaggy at linux.vnet.ibm.com
        ReportedBy: alevkovich at tut.by
        Regression: Yes


I had 2.6.29.4 gentoo kernel. I wanted to try 2.6.30 kernel. I installed
gentoo-sources-2.6.30.ebuild (it is 2.6.30 kernel + fbcondecor patch) and
compiled bzImage, compiled modules, installed modules. I copied bzImage into
/boot dir. I have grub installed, boot partition is jfs. I added the entry into
grub.conf, restarted system. The system is loaded ok. I changed the kernel
config and recompiled the kernel. Next the same: I copied bzImage into /boot
dir, restarted system. Grub was not able to load kernel. No any error messages,
pc was restarted automatically. bzImage was copied ok I checked it.

I booted with gentoo-livecd, mount my boot partition and copied bzImage again,
restarted the system. The system is loaded ok. 

So I think the problem in new jfs code (The problem in the copying of bzImage
under 2.6.30 kernel).
