[parisc-linux] 735/755 and Kernel test10..

[Phillip D. Beal]

Hey,

I've been working on the 735 and 755 that I has access to and so far
the systems booted the test6 kernel, but scrambled the console as soon
as init was run.  So, I figured I'd try the new test10 kernel that you
have added.  Both system boot, and then stop at this line:

branching to kernel entry point 0x00100000
Can't select default wide mode, PDC_PSW call does not work

What does the above actually mean?  How can I remove the PDC_PSW call
from the kernel so it can boot? I have plans to test this new kernel
image on a 715 later today. 

Thanks,

Did you build this kernel yourself?

If so, it sounds like you built a 64-bit kernel since that's the default.
You need to change the ARCH line in the linux/Makefile to read "parisc"
instead of "parisc64".

Correction. *was* the default.
default ARCH was changed last night to parisc.
