I can netboot up to the point that init is called, and things hang. Oh well. I've been able to netboot, more or less, using the codebase from late April. I did a bunch of sbus development work, but this codebase (which is from the cvsup10 special sparc64 repository) leaves me with a kernel that hangs as soon as I call bus_setup_intr for an SBus card. I may have missed the point at which one builds a kernel out of regular CVS source instead of the special repository, so I tried to build a kernel out of regular CVS using the April running system. Nope. That wouldn't even compile (gcc turned a bunch of printf("STRING") into calls to puts, etc.). Even hacking around that didn't help. So- with the limited amount of time I have available, I'm going to check in the work in progress as the code actually *does* seem to compile. Maybe otheres will have better luck. Frankly, I'm a bit peeved about the lack of support/interest in all of this. I'm not going to waste *my* time trying to do basic sparc64 debugging- sorry. Oh well- I'm sure those that can run systems are happy. -matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
