system hung while loading streams.ko

[kishore]

hi all,

I am trying to compile LiS-2.18 (downloaded from gcom.com) on,
Redhat Enterprise Linux WS release 4 ( Nahant Update 2) with kernel version
2.6.9-16.EL .

I'm able to compile LiS but facing a problem while loading streams.ko
.
Whenever i tried to load streams.ko using either,

insmod /lib/modules/`uname -r`/streams.ko or
modprobe streams.ko
the system is going to hang.

Can I have any solution to overcome this problem? If possible, let me know
why this problem was arised?

regards,
kishore,packetware.

There are no messages issued on the linux console?
You may have to get out of grapics mode and leave
the console in text mode to see fatal kernel oops
messages (i.e. 'init 3'). Another option is to use
a debug serial console:

and/or enable the magic keys and use them to get
a kernel stack traceback (Alt+SysRq+'t'):
