Hi
I'm having trouble getting a custom-compiled kernel to work on a G4
450Mhz SMP Mac. I first tried the 'kernel-image-2.4.18-powerpc-smp'
package, but this didn't work as I needed the AIC7XXX driver compiled
in, not as a module, due to my root fs being on an Adaptec scsi card.
kernel-image-2.2.20-pmac works just fine, but without the 2nd processor.
So I:
* got kernel-source-2.4.18-4
* patched it with kernel-patch-2.4.18-1
* used the kernel config file from the 2.4.18-powerpc-smp package, with
AIC7XXX compiled into the kernel as the only change
The image builds, installs and starts to boot, but hangs loading the ide
driver on the line
ide: Assuming 33Mhz system bus speed for PIO modes...
I get two CPU's recognised (2 penguins at the top), but does anyone have
any suggestions as to why my kernel fails to finish booting?
Regards
Gordon
