Probably. A normal -default kernel (3.1.10) uses 139M in /lib/modules. Check it with e.g.:
file $(/sbin/modinfo -F filename cdrom)
(works as user too). If the output contains the words 'not stripped', then debug stuff is still in there. Weird.
That is so, non stripped. cer@Telcontar:~> file $(/sbin/modinfo -F filename cdrom) /lib/modules/2.6.37.6-0.20-desktop-cer/kernel/drivers/cdrom/cdrom.ko: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped
My cdrom.ko and btrfs.ko are also not stripped. Have you checked with du -hs /lib/modules/$(uname -r) as your's seems one order of magnitude too large?
Heh! :-) Look: cer@Telcontar:~> file $(/sbin/modinfo -F filename cdrom) /lib/modules/2.6.37.6-0.20-desktop-cer/kernel/drivers/cdrom/cdrom.ko: ELF 64-bit LSB relocatable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), not stripped cer@Telcontar:~> du -hs /lib/modules/$(uname -r) 1,8G /lib/modules/2.6.37.6-0.20-desktop-cer cer@Telcontar:~> du -hs /usr/src/linux 0 /usr/src/linux cer@Telcontar:~> du -hs /usr/src/linux/ 7,1G /usr/src/linux/ cer@Telcontar:~> du -hs /usr/src/linux/ 22 minutes to build, on a fast quad core2 machine (Q9550 @ 2.83GHz)
A built kernel-tree does take up a _LOT_ of space, but not that much ;)
It does for me and others. I have not investigated. I do: #!/bin/bash echo "-- cloneconfig --" && make cloneconfig && echo "-- scripts --" && make scripts && echo "-- prepare --" && make prepare && echo "-- Done good! --" then make menuconfig, change the kernel name to -desktop-cer to use a different modules tree, then: echo "-- hacer --" && make --jobs=4 && echo "-- modulos --" && make modules_install && echo "-- install --" && make install && echo "-- Done good! --"
I'd have to look where that "switching to UP code" is ;) Waiting what you get when it gets stuck.
It got stuck today, but on restore - that is not usual, but I made a photo. I can not post it now, I have to go shopping two things before they close.
BTW: have you had a look at the 'smartctl -A' output for the device(s) where your swap is on?
Of course, one of first things I did. Did the long test too, no problems. I also reformatted the swap partition. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.
