Hi Phil, > This fixed my '\' character at the loader prompt That was caused by a Forth file being included and not understood by the previous Forth-less loader. >panic: vn_pageout_flush: partially invalid page 0xe03b0440 index 0/1 > Stopped at 0x3496f3: lwz r0, r1, 0x14 I get this panic when untarring on my 128Mb notebook (and the 64Mb B&W G3 :). Still investigating. It's easy to reproduce on machines with more amounts of ram. Just create a file larger than memory size, and then dd it to /dev/zero. When running 'top', free memory gradually drops to zero, and when the pager kicks in the panic happens. >VM activity seems to panic the system here and there. Is it the same panic ? >zstty0 and zstty1 are probed, but where the heck are these >located physically on a G4 ? One is the modem, the other one may not be connected. There are third-party converters that bring out a standard serial port (e.g. Griffin g4Port). later, Peter.
