I am on a Ti powerbook. Running a pretty much default linux2000 Q4. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -- Robert Spahr On 2001.06.12 09:22 Christoph Ewering wrote: > > Hello! > > I´m trying to get a 2.4.5 kernel to run on a 7300 / 604 MP Mac for a > week. > > Just synced from penguinppc the linux-2.4-benh-kernel and compiled it. > > The kernel got hung during syslogd startup and prints something about > seg-fault in /etc.../rc > > But since today it goes on and boots to the login-prompt. > > This is what /var/log/messages has to say: > ... > Jun 12 11:23:28 multimac kernel: VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) > readonly. > Jun 12 11:23:28 multimac kernel: Freeing unused kernel memory: 288k init > 4k chrp 36k prep > Jun 12 11:23:28 multimac kernel: Adding Swap: 233464k swap-space > (priority -1) > Jun 12 11:43:27 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 12:03:27 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 12:23:27 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 12:43:27 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 13:03:27 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 13:23:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 13:43:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 14:03:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 14:23:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 14:43:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 15:03:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 15:23:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 15:43:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 16:03:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 16:23:28 multimac -- MARK -- > Jun 12 16:31:32 multimac Font Server[172]: terminating > Jun 12 16:31:33 multimac kernel: Kernel logging (proc) stopped. > Jun 12 16:31:33 multimac kernel: Kernel log daemon terminating. > Jun 12 16:31:33 multimac exiting on signal 15 > > Someone knows what this is?
