Hi,

  are there already MIPS systems running on 2.6.0 ? If so, which ones
  ? I'm currently porting a VR41xx based configuration from 2.4.24 to
  2.6.0: boot sequence seems to be OK, but the init process doesn't
  come up (it looks like its not properly laid out in memory, thus
  continuously generating exceptions (do_signal()) ...). Is it too
  soon to expect it to work ?

  Dimitri

Which Vr41xx's configuration did you use?

None of the default ones in the tree, it's not a board listed in the
configs (the board has a VR4120A and a VR4131 cpu). I'm currently
using a configuration with CONFIG_EMBEDDED_RAMDISK set and
CONFIG_MACH_VR41XX. 

Is there a working config with a VR41xx on 2.6.0 ? It would surprise
me since I had to do some fixes for the VR41xx series (for some I
already sent a patch) which seem to indicate the VR41xx specifics have
not yet been actively looked at for 2.6.0 (although I know you
have been submitting patches for the Vr41xx).

Are you trying 2.6.0 from linux-mips.org CVS?
If so, make sure it is no earlier then from yesterday. There was
non-CPU specific bug that was just fixed.

For reference: I have R212K-based SGI O2 running almost stable with
2.6.0. R5K O2's also boot, but show random segfaults and oopses, but
I still do not know what exactly is the reason for that.

Ok, will update.

About 2.6 of linux-mips, development progressed quickly
several of these months.

Therefore, we are not completing Vr41xx about 2.6.
