Aha! I got a working kernel. I guess I know more than I think I do :) Here is the diff for the config, from your -small config. I really don't know which of these were essential, I ended up with only 59k free space on the floppy. But I guess that's enough. Also, whoever can work on it to make it part of the d-i build: I put the script to generate the floppy miBoot image (stolen from boot-floppies), and the necessary pieces, plus the resulting floppy image, at http://members.cox.net/toff1/miBoot.tgz The floppy boots and loads the woody root.bin on my clone machine. I'll try to test on a 9500 later if I get a chance. I couldn't test the sarge root.bin yet, the one I had handy (from a last week's CD) was too big for a floppy. --- boot/config-2.4.22-powerpc-small Wed Oct 22 10:43:36 2003 +++ miBoot/config Thu Oct 23 22:52:29 2003 @@ -90,7 +90,7 @@ # CONFIG_PARPORT_SUNBPP is not set # CONFIG_PARPORT_OTHER is not set CONFIG_PARPORT_1284=y -CONFIG_GEN_RTC=m +CONFIG_GEN_RTC=y CONFIG_PPC601_SYNC_FIX=y CONFIG_PROC_DEVICETREE=y CONFIG_PPC_RTAS=y @@ -369,11 +369,11 @@ # # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD_IDE is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HD is not set -CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK=m +CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK=y # CONFIG_IDEDISK_MULTI_MODE is not set # CONFIG_IDEDISK_STROKE is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECS=m -CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD=m +CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECD=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDETAPE=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEFLOPPY=m CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI=m @@ -442,12 +442,12 @@ # # SCSI support # -CONFIG_SCSI=m +CONFIG_SCSI=y # # SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM) # -CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=m +CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y CONFIG_SD_EXTRA_DEVS=40 CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST=m CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST=m @@ -558,10 +558,10 @@ CONFIG_SCSI_U14_34F_MAX_TAGS=8 # CONFIG_SCSI_NSP32 is not set CONFIG_SCSI_DEBUG=m -CONFIG_SCSI_MESH=m +CONFIG_SCSI_MESH=y CONFIG_SCSI_MESH_SYNC_RATE=5 CONFIG_SCSI_MESH_RESET_DELAY_MS=4000 -CONFIG_SCSI_MAC53C94=m +CONFIG_SCSI_MAC53C94=y # # PCMCIA SCSI adapter support @@ -626,7 +626,7 @@ # Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) # CONFIG_NET_ETHERNET=y -CONFIG_MACE=m +CONFIG_MACE=y # CONFIG_MACE_AAUI_PORT is not set CONFIG_BMAC=m CONFIG_GMAC=m @@ -1105,8 +1105,8 @@ # Input core support # CONFIG_INPUT=y -CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBDEV=m -CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=m +CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBDEV=y +CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV=y CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_X=1024 CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_Y=768 CONFIG_INPUT_JOYDEV=m @@ -1264,7 +1264,7 @@ # CONFIG_AMD7XX_TCO is not set # CONFIG_SCx200_GPIO is not set # CONFIG_AMD_PM768 is not set -CONFIG_NVRAM=m +CONFIG_NVRAM=y # CONFIG_RTC is not set CONFIG_DTLK=m CONFIG_R3964=m @@ -1352,7 +1352,7 @@ # CONFIG_ADFS_FS_RW is not set CONFIG_AFFS_FS=m CONFIG_ASFS_FS=m -CONFIG_HFS_FS=m +CONFIG_HFS_FS=y CONFIG_HFSPLUS_FS=m CONFIG_BEFS_FS=m # CONFIG_BEFS_DEBUG is not set @@ -1753,7 +1753,7 @@ # # CONFIG_CRC32 is not set CONFIG_ZLIB_INFLATE=y -CONFIG_ZLIB_DEFLATE=m +CONFIG_ZLIB_DEFLATE=y # # Kernel hacking -- Debian GNU/Linux Operating System By the People, For the People Chris Tillman (a people instance) toff one at cox dot net
