[parisc-linux] Back to evms-1.0.1 && unaligne access && gdb

[jsoe0708@tiscali.be]

Hey,

I am lucky.

A ^C during a run and I got:
^C
Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
0x4020a0e4 in isa_null_partition_record (p=0x3fe0ff) at checks.c:65
/usr/src/EVMS/evms-1.0.1/engine/Plugins/defsegmgr/checks.c:65:1603:beg:0x4020a0e4

where I find:
     60 BOOLEAN isa_null_partition_record(struct partition *p)
     61 {
     62     int          i;
     63     u_int32_t   *uip = (u_int32_t *) p;
     64
     65     for (i=0; i<4; i++) {
     66         if (*uip!=0x00) return FALSE;
     67     }
     68
     69     return TRUE;
     70 }

So am I right to suspect "u_int32_t   *uip = (u_int32_t *) p;" being the
actual cause of 'unaligned access' problem?

Thanks in advance for additionnal comments,
  Joel
