[Bug 49332] Re: resume: busybox: page allocation failure.

[Kurt J. Bosch]

I have this problem with 2.6.15-26-686 and 2.6.16-686 (cusom) too:

{ cat messages messages.0 ; zcat messages.*.gz ; } | grep 'page allo'

I even made a package kernel-image-2.6.16-686 using Debians linux-
tree-2.6.16 2.6.16-17 with config from linux-image-2.6.16-2-686
2.6.16-17, but got the same error (!) :

Jul 30 12:09:32 Microstar kernel: busybox: page allocation failure.
order:0, mode:0x8020

After this I replaced busybox (and initramfs) by versions from debian
stable / backports:

sudo apt-get install initramfs-tools/sarge-backports busybox-cvs-static
sudo update-initramfs -u -v -k 2.6.15-26-686

result was again:
Aug 15 15:59:11 Microstar kernel: [17179580.184000] busybox: page allocation failure. order:0, mode:0x8020

So I gave up and went back to normal packages and configurations :(
