That kernel binary is still available here, https://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-mac68k/files/4.1.y Test Kernel/ All of the downloads that I know of can be found via links at, http://www.mac.linux-m68k.org/docs/faq.php#sec-8 http://www.mac.linux-m68k.org/docs/faq.php#sec-12 > > My machine is a Performa 450 (which is almost identical to an LC III, > isn't it?)

(i have probably not > understood the problem with "Egret" completely) The problem is that my kernel builds leave CONFIG_ADB_MACIISI disabled because years ago I found that this driver caused instability. This means that, for certain 68030-based Mac models including the LC's and the IIsi and IIvi, the 4.1 kernel binary linked to above lacks the appropriate ADB driver. Without ADB, you will need a network login service (e.g. sshd) and/or serial console. The getty on /dev/ttyS0 or /dev/ttyS1 used to be configured in /etc/inittab, but I never tried that with systemd. -- > > Thanks, > Stefan Niestegge > > >
