Hi,
2.4.9 worked fine, but starting with 2.4.10 my Alphastation 200 stopped booting. It simply halts immediately after being called by aboot:
------------ aboot> 6 aboot: loading compressed boot/srm-vmlinux-2.4.10.gz... aboot: zero-filling 147840 bytes at 0xfffffc0000a82520 aboot: starting kernel boot/srm-vmlinux-2.4.10.gz with arguments root=/dev/sda5 video=tga:font:SUN12x22,mode:1024x768-76 console=ttyS0
halted CPU 0
halt code = 5 HALT instruction executed PC = fffffc00009b0cc0 >>> ------------
I think the problem is the newly introduced opDEC_check, if I do the following change
------------ --- arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c Thu Nov 1 02:48:15 2001 +++ arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c.good Thu Nov 1 23:07:32 2001 @@ -998,6 +998,6 @@ trap_init(void) * a bug in the handling of the opDEC fault. Fix it up if so. */ if (implver() == IMPLVER_EV4) { - opDEC_check(); + /*opDEC_check();*/ } } ------------
the computer boots OK. I'm using SRM V7.0-9 and aboot 0.8 on an AlphaStation 200 4/100
regards, chris
