as i just emailed tom on the side, duh, i took his previous note stupidly literally, and selected *only* the options he listed. i figured out pretty quickly to also select the "Support for console on CPM2 ..." and, lo and behold, i have kernel boot output on my rpxlite board. whew. so now i get as far as: RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 72k init Warning: unable to open an initial console. Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init! i suspect this is also some silly misconfiguration. off to track it down. rday ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
