Subject: 2.4 kernels broken on Takara?
Date: Sun, 8 Feb 2004 10:39:09 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040208103909.C25099@thebrain.conmicro.cx> (raw)
I'm trying to install Gentoo on a Takara (PICMG 21164A/500). The only
installer I've found that will run is the Debian 3.0r2 CD, which has a
2.2.20 kernel on it. That's not new enough for Gentoo, which needs a 2.4 to
install. I've tried installing a Debian system, then a 2.4 kernel on top of
that - but 2.4.18 and 2.4.24 prebuilt generic kernels, as well as a 2.4.24
custom kernel built specifically for the Takara, all blow up with a kernel
paging error during startup, right after the PCI bridges are detected. The
2.2.20 kernel iinstalled by Debian runs fine.
What do I need to do to find this problem and fix it?
