[etherlab-users] Machine freeze/reset on module load

[Felix Jirka]

After I adapted the rtai example code that is included with the master
to my environment,
I get the following output from the console:

[  351.804828] ec_rtai_sample: Starting...
[  351.804923] EtherCAT: Requesting master 0...
[  351.805010] EtherCAT: Successfully requested master 0.

[  351.806288] ec_rtai_sample: Initialized.

after the last message the machine does a reboot...

Could this be related to the use of the generic-ethernet driver?

The current environment is debian squeeze running a vanilla 2.6.32.20
kernel with rtai patch from the rtai-repository
