Hello everybody,
I am trying to rebuild the Amiga 1.0 kernel from the 1.0 distribution.
When I get the GENERIC kernel happening I will fold in the FastLane
drivers. The problem I am having is that after I do a succesfull
make in the compile directory and /dev/reload the kernel, I get a
blank screen. The hard drive seems to go through some initial boot
processing and the modem gets lots of data that makes it go repeatedly
onhook and offhook and then stopping with the TxD and RxD lights lit
up. The keyboard is dead too.
Any ideas as to what needs to be doen to successfully rebuild the
1.0 kernel?
The reason I am not using -current is because it has problems with
both root and usr partitions. It thinks that they are not clean and
when fsck does it's bit they either get trashed even more, or just
not fixed.
HELP...
