List-ID: Yesterday I committed some hardware detection code that actually worked on my A180. I spent today refining it to work on my 715, which works, but I need others to test it on different hardware. Here's what I get on my 715: Probing PDC firmware for devices, found: This is an older box... - Scorpio Sr. Core SCSI (10) at 0xf0825000, versions 0x19, 0x0, 0x71, 0x0, - Scorpio Sr. Core LAN (802.3) (10) at 0xf0826000, versions 0x19, 0x0, - Scorpio Sr. Core HIL (10) at 0xf0821000, versions 0x19, 0x0, 0x73, 0x0, - Scorpio Sr. Core RS-232 (10) at 0xf0823000, versions 0x19, 0x0, 0x75, - Scorpio Sr. Core RS-232 (10) at 0xf0822000, versions 0x19, 0x0, 0x75, - Scorpio Sr. Core Centronics (10) at 0xf0824000, versions 0x19, 0x0, 0x74, - Scorpio Sr. Audio (10) at 0xf1000000, versions 0x19, 0x0, 0x7b, 0x0, 0x0 That's 7 devices total.

Could people please test either building a kernel from source, or from the binary at: ftp://puffin.external.hp.com/pub/parisc/binaries/kernels/Image-19990929 I'd appreciate it if you could just mail me (adevries@thepuffingroup.com) the results of an entire bootup. If you could put the machine name in the subject, it'd help. Getting this to go was pretty hard, since the docs for MEM_MAP and SYSTEM_MAP were unavailable at the time of the writing of the code. The somewhat random alignment chewed up a lot of time. In other good news, it sounds like Philipp is close to getting a serial console on Lasi going. - Alex -- Alex deVries Vice President of Engineering The Puffin Group
