FYI:
I added "option NETATALK" to a kernel configuration file that, aside from
having a number of network and disk devices commented out, was
substantially unchanged from GENERIC. This resulted in a kernel file that
was 2512988 bytes, a much larger number than was expected (GENERIC is
1457189). This resulting kernel file hung as soon as the kernel was
loaded (it never got to process -c flags). I haven't yet compiled the
netatalk software itself on this system (P200, 32M, 3C509, wd0 only).
Removing this option and remaking the kernel resulted in a perfectly
working kernel. If there's something I've missed, please let me know.
This did work with 2.2.2R.
If there are releases past 2.2.5 that I can help test to see if this
problem is eliminated, I will be happy to help. I'm not skilled enough
with AppleTalk in general to be able to debug the kernel source itself,
unfortunately.
