2.1 Kernel Patch PJ09315 8/12/94
File:KERNAL.fax 4/20/94
DESCRIPTION OF SYMPTOMS:
This trap000e can occur at any time. Below are the CS:EIP values
and kernel revisions associated with this trap. The trap pertains
to closed apar PJ09315 which points to _TKDeclareInversion routine
in the kernel map.
1. 0160:FFF80186 kernel revision 6.514- OS/2 2.1 GA
2. 0160:FFF801EE kernel revision 6.538 - installed with the
S3 drivers for OS/2 2.1
3. 0160:FFF80192 kernel revision 6.543 - service pack 2 for
OS/2 2.0 release
SUMMARY OF RESOLUTION:
To resolve the above trap000e it is necessary to patch the kernel.
This is recommended instead of sending the latest 2.1 kernel.
DETAILS OF RESOLUTION:
Below are the steps to patch the kernel.
1. Close all applications. It will be necessary to shutdown
and reboot upon completion.
2. Open an OS/2 Window or Fullscreen - you should be in the
root directory of OS/2.
3. Type: attrib -r -s -h os2krnl (press enter)
4. Type: copy os2krnl os2krnl.rtl (press enter)
5. Type: patch os2krnl (press enter)
You will be prompted for the hexadecimal offset of patch.
a. If using the 6.514 kernel, type 52907 and press
enter. The first five bytes displayed should be
e8 b9 bd ff ff.
b. If using the 6.538 kernel, type 5298b and press
enter. The first five bytes displayed should be
e8 61 bd ff ff.
c. If using the 6.543 kernel, type 5295f and press
enter. The first five bytes displayed should be
e8 b9 bd ff ff.
* * NOTE * *
If the bytes displayed do not match what is shown above, DO NOT
proceed.
6. Type: 90 90 90 90 90 - that is, overtype the first five
bytes with 90 and press enter.
7. Do you want to continue patching? Type: N (press enter)
8. Do you want these patches applied? Type: Y (press enter)
At this point the kernel has been patched. The next step is to
save the kernel and reboot the system.
9. Type: copy os2krnl os2krnl.sav (press enter)
10. Type: attrib +r +s +h os2krnl (press enter)
