There is a problem with 2.4.18 executing init on Sparc hardware. 2.4.19-pre10 works Get the patch and put it on /usr/src patch: zcat <patch file> | patch -p0 Davin Carter -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Cantin To: [email protected] Sent: 6/25/02 6:07 AM Subject: [suse-sparc] Kernels Hi all. I've been trying to add a new (2.4.18) kernel to a Suse 7.3 installation, but I think I must be missing a step somewhere. I'm using the default kernel config from /boot/vmlinuz.config, and the kernel and module compilation seems to go fine. I've installed the modules and kernel (to /boot/vmlinuz.2.4.18), and added lines to /boot/silo.conf, and the initial boot up with the new kernel seems ok too. The bootup stops abruptly, though, and seemingly without error at a 'VFS ... mounted ext2' prompt. Should I change some kernel parameters between these kernel versions? I'm having some persistent issues with masquerading and multiple eth devices and am hoping the new kernel can help, but I'm a bit ignorant with sparc boot loaders. Can anyone help with this process? thanks Jeff __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
