Was thinking it might be my solution. Any >clues as to that patch? First, please tell me what you get in the debugger (at least NIP and LR) that you can lookup in System.map so I know where it dies. Also, if you use my rsync, you can put the kernel arg. "adb_sync", that may help having working kbd in xmon. Ben. ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
