I'm currently having a problem using the system() call to execute shell commands from within a process. Previously on 2.4.17 (i think that was
the last one i used) i could successfully execute a system("insmod ticker.o c 247 0") to load my own device drivers, but since updating to 2.4.31 i will receive the Kernel panic: BUG! message and the system hangs. Thinking maybe something was wrong with my module, i decided to just attempt to execute a /bin/sh and recieve the same message. Has something been changed for the sh command line support to not allow multiple sh running?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
On a side note, the reason for me using system() is because i need to programatically load/unload device drivers depending on user input.
Thanks in advance,
Aaron
