I got the seg-fault only for starting of Mersenne 27.7, not with the kernel itself. Also updating to stress 1.0.4 was no problem with the current kernel. I edited the ramdisk by first expanding the filesystem of the initrd to 48MB since Mersenne 27.7 is a lot larger and wouldn't fit into the current initrd. Then I had two error messages of Mersenne 27.7 pointing to two libraries which I included. But this led only to seg-fault error and I had no idea what else to do. I very much suspect the kernel not to support some calls that are made by the new Mersenne 27.7.
However it's working with Slitaz perfectly and I love Slitaz. It's the smallest full functional distro and stupid easy to mod for whatever you want - pertaining it's tiny footprint. OmniBoot for instance features a micro pxe-server, which uses 21,5MB of the original Slitaz-Distro and a 65kB extension containing a nfs-server, a tftp addon and the start-up scripts. For CPU-Stress I'm using 15,4MB of the original Distro and the cpustress-addon now has 5.2MB - due to that large Mersenne 27.7.
