Re: [Freemint-discuss] Memory Protection on Falcon/CT60

1.17 is not perfectly stable but it is orders of magnitude more stable,
to the point that you can get some use out of it.  For instance i can
run conholio on a busy terminal for days with no problem.  I do believe
now though that the later kernels are just better at showing a hardware
issue that is present in 1.17 as well.

With the ethernat pulled 1.19 4c3 seems perfect.  I'll need to put an
ethernec in to really beat it up and verify in all scenarios but I
believe the issue is some kind of bus loading/interrupt issue on the 060
side.  I have as far as I know all the most recent ABE/SDR and CTPCI
images and the ones that are valid for my setup.

My CTPCI was corrupting IDE transfers too.  I am curious if it still
does it with the ethernat removed now that things seem more stable.

Thanks,
Mark
