[parisc-linux] PA-RISC assembly

[asdfsdf sdfsdf]

Hello. I am wondering what the equivalent of
jmp and call are in PA-RISC assembly.  If there
are any documents on the internet specifying 
PA-RISC assembly I would be very grateful.

[parisc-linux] installing linux on HP systems

[nick]

Hi, I've got a C180 and a 715 that I'm trying to install linux on.  The
C180 has various issues that I belive are being worked on, so I moved on
to the 715.  On the 715 I get errors allong the lines of:
Writing inode tables: done                            
Writing superblocks and filesystem accounting information: done
# 
# # EXT2-fs error (device sd(8,2)): ext2_readdir: bad entry in directory
#2: rec_len % 4 != 0 - offset=0, inode=1701996660, rec_len5

This happens every time I try and mount a partition.  Is the 715 scsi
unsupported as well?

715 scsi is supported, and works for many people.  Sorry, I don't know
what might be causing your problem.

We generally insert scsi-wrangling-magic as kernel parameters:

sim700=noneg:0xff,nodisc:0xff

And it works beautifully after that.

Cheers,
Carlos.

Ah, yes, I'd forgotten about that issue.  That is potentially needed if
you have more than one device active on the bus, at least.

Thanks,
 Richard

I only have one device connected (a single 1gig scsi disk), which appeared
to work fine in HP-UX.  Are there any debugging options I could/should
enable?

So you are installing from the network I guess (cdrom would be a second
device).  You should try the scsi-wrangling-magic as Carlos suggests,
just in case.

What version of e2fsprogs do you have installed?

-- 
Revolutions do not require corporate support.

Re: [parisc-linux] installing linux on HP systems

I am useing the debian narrow kernel, along with the attached ramdisk.  I
can check on the versions it contains.

Start by searching www.parisc-linux.org and docs.hp.com.
Then grab the parisc-linux kernel source and look for *.S files
in the arch/parisc directory to find some real examples.
