In an attempt to solve my J2240 STI and Eth0/1
problems I am trying to upgrade the kernel from the 2.4.9-32 on the 0.9.3 ISO to
something more recent. Specifically, I've tried 32-2.4.16-pa24 and
pa29. I ftp'd the tar files from the 32-bit directory, untarred / unzipped
the contents, copied them into /boot, changed the link for vmlinux, and modified
/etc/palo.conf. However, in both cases when I boot, everything initially
looks like it will boot OK, but I eventually get a stack pointer error, a long
hex dump, and finally "Kernel Fault: Code=15 regs=102af4c0 (Addr=00368004)"
.... This all appears on the STI head, even though I changed console to
ttyS0, and scrolls by too fast to get much meaningful info prior to the hex
dump.
Do I have to upgrade from source (which I'll try
next) or am I doing something wrong or both?
