Newport is the most common graphics option for the Indy and there exists a console driver for it. Luckily it outputs some more stuff than the serial console: | CPU revision is: 00000430 | FPU revision is: 00000500 | ... | Checking for the multiply/shift bug... yes, workaround... no. | kernel panic - not syncing: Reliable operation impossible! | Configure for R4000 to enable the workaround. I configured the kernel for R4X00. There are a few references to CONFIG_CPU_R4000 in the source which doesn't seem to be a config option anymore, but I couldn't find a workaround somewhere... >> I'll also try the said patch (you're referring to "blast_scache nop ...", >> do you?). > Precisely. doesn't change anything, neither for R4000PC nor for R4600PC.
