challenge s boots linux

[Richard Hartensveld <richardh@infopact.nl>]

Hi,

I have successfully booted linux on a challenge S. but the problem is
that the kernel wants to write his output to the console, which isn't
mij serial port unfortunatelly.

Does anyone have a kernel for me from which i can continue my quest of
installing linux on a challenge s ? :)

Below you'll find my kernel booting information for whom is interested.

Regards,

Richard Hartensveld
