The cable is now definitely connected to the right serial port; I am now
getting output but it's too slow. Bo

Further to my previous post about the serial port slowing down during
booting, here are the interrupts. It took an hour and a half to get to a
shell...
It doesn't look like there's anything amiss. Anyone have any other ideas?

Hi people,
Further to my previous message below, the Debian installer startup screen
does appear, though you have to wait about fifteen minutes...
Can anyone suggest why, after working perfectly up to the "freeing unused
kernel memory" point, the console becomes so slow?
Now I'll wait another h
Hi,
I've noticed something strange.
Booting my kernel from the net (bootp/tftp) and monitoring the bootup
messages on another machine by doing cat < /dev/ttyS0, I see bootup

but when I configure the machine to start from the net using the

Plug one end of the cable into the RS/6000 serial port. Plug the other

Hmmm might have... doesn't matter it should work and does work with linux.
Now this is an RS/6000 Matrox card right?

Hi John,
I did read your message. Thanks for posting that valuable info.
However, I still haven't found the reason why my screen blanks during
boot and I can't interact with the machine.
Maybe I should compile in a boot argument, console=vga or something... Any

Hi all,
My attempt to install woody on the IBM RS/6000 7025 F50 has still not
succeeded.
I have now tried compiling a kernel image with a combined initrd and
boooting using bootp/tftp as described in Rolf Brudeseth's HOWTO at
http://www.personalized-story-book.com/debian/Woody_ibm_chrp_net_inst
Hi,
I have managed to cross-compile a kernel image for the IBM RS/6000 7025
F50 on an Intel machine.
I have replaced the kernel image linux.bin on the Debian woody
powerpc-chrp rescue floppy with this image.
This kernel appears to boot, but I can't continue the installation. I'd
be very gratef
