Oops... looks like I was too quick to cry success... It does NOT work, even with the patch. I tried it again and again, and could not get it to boot. I probably put a wrong (Pentium MMX) kernel on the flashdisk when I first tested your patch, which led me to believe it did, indeed, work. After repeated experiments I can only conclude thay Winchip2A is still hosed, even when reverse-applying the patch Dave sent. I'll try to find out where it stops using the DISPLAY_.. trick...
Cheers//Frank
