Peter, I'll try the update and recompile. I looked under the
/usr/src/etc/etc.sparc64 directory but I'm not sure why I need
what is there. I looked under /data/ppc/etc/ and found both a
disktab (looks fine to me) and a ttys file (different, but I
don't understand the syntax). There is no rc.powerpc but
looking in the one for sparc it is nothing but a print statement.
Is it important to just have that file exist?
Were you expecting there would not be a ttys file in my
install? Just curious...
Drew, you'll need to help me out here -- I don't know how to
add a getty on ofwcons; do I replace
ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" cons25 on secure
with something like
ttyv0 "/usr/libexec/getty Pc" ofwcons on secure
Should I do this in the sparc version or the version that got
installed somehow by my earlier efforts?
Sean

This was my fault: I messed up a commit in trap_subr.S, which prevented
signal
delivery in certain situations. This should now be fixed, so an update and
buildkernel/installkernel will pick it up.
The other thing I forgot to mention in the install step is that some
additional
files need to be copied to /etc. This is another case of files not being
in the
tree, but fortunately they're the same as used in sparc64
cp <srcroot>/etc/etc.sparc64/* <destdir>/etc/
mv <destdir>/etc/rc.sparc64 <destdir>/etc/rc.powerpc
This will give you a ttys file which is needed to be able to log in on
the console.
later,
Peter.
