RE: Linux Kernel hangs after execve('/bin/sh')

Some important informations are missing to help you.
Which CPU model and revision are you using?
Which kernel version, taken from where?
Some newer CPU revs are incompatible with older kernels.

Hurray .......

Daris, you suggestion seem to work. I Compiled my
hello.c with -Bstatic (size was almost 1MB), added it
to ramdisk and it works. So now the problem is
narrowed down to, being not able to work with the
shared libraries.

One point is that, i DID NOT get any errors (atleast
on the screen) while execve was loading shared
libraries in the process of executing /bin/sh. But for
sure, my problem is related to it.

I really appreciate any suggestions related to this
issue.

Thanks,
Prakash
