Would you please try this kernel binary as well -- https://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-mac68k/files/4.1.35%20Test%20Kernel/ If that works, it would mean that my Egret patches are to blame, since there is no other difference between the two builds. > > If you can post a link to the modified source, I can try compiling with > different options to see if anything works (though I've had similar > trouble before trying to compile any linux-4.x kernel). That link is in the message I sent yesterday. But I think you would get the same result from your compiler, so I can't recommend it.
