[parisc-linux] kernel config file for HP D-series

[parisc-linux] kernel config file for HP D-series

[Corné Beerse]

Hello,

Since some time have a D370-2 running Debian Linux. Currently the box is only 
used as stove (it's getting cold outside) and I like to give it some usage like 
testing new kenels and such.

Does anyone have a kernel config file for a HP D-series machine which I can use 
as a start point for my kernel configs? Preferably a D370 with 2 CPUs. Or can 
anyone guide which of the basic configs can be used for a start point? (I guess 
the B180 but that does not work out of the box).

Thanks in advance,


CBee

You can start with just 'make defconfig'.  That should produce a working
kernel.  Options worth tweaking (with menuconfig, or vi, or whatever)
would be:

 - SMP on 
 - PA7000 -> PA8000
 - PCI_LBA off

If you have no HSC-PCI cards, you might want to turn PCI off too.
