Hi Uli,
thanks ,
I just found in the bootloader I used "go" to access the kernel, maybe
the problem is caused by this, I will check it further.
by the way, do you know how to setup the address of the ramdisk in the
bootloader? I used bootm kernel_address ramdisk_address.
is this enough?

2.6.11++ to a 2.6.23-rc3 (I'll give the powerpc
folks a 'piece' of my mind on that front) - the
NFS hang problem that I was experiencing on the
older kernel is NOT occurring on this new version.
Now what do I do?

This patch fixes the problem for me, thanks.
Is this patch changing the behavior of "sharecache" to
"try-to-share-cache-if-possible", or adding a third behavior? If the user
explicitly asks for "-o sharecache", does he get an error back if the mount
options mismatch?

This patch makes the PVR2 VBLANK interrupt on the SEGA Dreamcast
shareable - a small but necessary change to enable ongoing efforts to
develop a driver for the maple bus on the Dreamcast. (Maple is Sega's

The Marvell bridge chips used on HighPoint SATA cards do not seem to support
