I'd better start by telling you that this list is deprecated :-( The clfs stuff is now using lists.cross-lfs.org - see the clfs website, then subscribe to clfs-support. > > > I have already working system on my machine, ubuntu (in hda3) > > I start ubuntu and I add lines to yaboot.conf > ... > ... > image=/boot/clfskernel-2.6.19.1 > label=SVN-20061226 > root=/dev/hda7 > read-only > > > and run: ybin and mkofboot > > but when I restart with clfs I have error > > > copying of device > building dt string > building dt structure > ... > ... > calling quiesce... > return from prompt init > I don't recognise these kernel messages, but then I don't boot my ppc very often (it sleeps well), and usually the messages run past at speed. There is nothing to say that it panic'd (e.g. failed to mount the root filesystem) so I'll have to use pure guesswork here. I think it has died at a very early stage (not very many messages during the boot, perhaps it didn't even give you a screenful ?). > > and stop > > > can you help me ? > > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] This might be a bad, or inappropriate, kernel config. Have you built your own kernels for this machine before, or is this your first time? If so, how did you get the config ? Did you use ARCH ppc or powerpc ? (If you didn't specify, it ought to default to powerpc, which is what you want. If you have the .config, you can check what it says.) Perhaps it's failing when it tries to switch to the framebuffer, you could try copying the entry in yaboot.conf, give its label a new name, and add append="video=ofonly" to see if that helps. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/cross-lfs FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
