(Tom is bcc'd on this message to avoid address farming)
I've not had a bootable kernel since -test3 on PC164 (from memory). I've had a mail from Tom Holroyd who hasn't been able to boot his DP264 in that time as well, but with differing symptoms to me.
When I try to boot, I get the milo ----------------------------------------------------------
line, and some disk activity, which I assume is the kernel coming in. Then nothing. Serial console does not help. I've tried a mostly module-free kernel to avoid any lkm weirdnesses, but that's not it.
From reading Tom's mail, he gets boot messages, but the kernel panics when it cannot find init. Is that an accurate assessment Tom?
Is there something that should be regressed? Happy to debug, given guidance - it's a development machine. Is there a remote gdb possibility in this situation?
thanks,
