[parisc-linux] palo not booting kernel

[Yasholomew Yashinski]

 I completed a serial console cd-rom install, ignoring the kernel install
because of cd-rom detection issue (irony?). I booted off 0/vmlinux and
installed 2.4.16-32 via apt-get. Trying to reboot I get the following:

HARD Booted.
palo ipl 0.99 root@palinux Thu Jan 24 14:47:37 MST 2002

PALO will choose the console currently used by firmware (serial).

ext2_iget: read errorERROR: open /boot/vmlinux from partition 3 failed

 Also wondering how the Vis EG-PCI support is coming, is
parisc-linux-announce the best way to track this? Anxious to use graphics
console :)

 (I can send anyone interested the issues I've had to date installing
0.9.3 via cd-rom on the B1k).

 Kowtow,

It's nearly finished. 
The current CVS version 2.4.17-pa28 now boots my c3000 w/ VisEG PCI and
has working sticon and stifb in case you _boot_ via serial console (after bootup
you may of course use sticon/stifb).
Booting from graphics console will still crash your machine - but we're working on that.

Did you modified your /etc/palo.conf and run palo afterwards ?
In doubt please read the FAQ.
