Don't know if this is configured in the 2.4.20 kernel you are using or not (BTW, i thought there were 2.4.22 apus kernels also). Friendly, Sven Luther |

Hi, so far I only get 2.4.9 running (more or less stable) on my A1200.

I tried the kernels from the APUS-Homepage. Any hints? I could provide some screenshots. Thanks Markus |

Thanks Geert, I'll add this and will send the dmesg output when I have
it to see if someone can help me.

You have to add `debug=mem' to the kernel command line to make dmesg work.

Hello,
I installed Debian 3.0 on my Amiga 1200PPC. I'm using the latest
boothack and latest kerenel (2.4.20). It installed fine, I configured the
keyboard (selectec US keyboard) , the main and swap partitions, then I
selected the install base system option and the base packages got installed
from my SCSI cdrom. Then I rebooted the system and booted with the
following command:
bootstrap --apus -k vmlinux root=/dev/hda6 video=pm2fb:mode:800x600-60
nobats 60nsram
The boot process starts OK, but it freezes on this part: *Setting the
system clock using the hardware clock as reference.*
I have to reset after, booted without startup-sequence and ran dmesg to
get the log of the boot process and send it here, however the dmesg tool
always tell me: *Searching for saveKMSG magic... Not found*
BTW, the Algor and powerflyer are disabled when booting.
My System specs:
Amiga 1200T 603/240, 060/50, SCSI II, Yamaha 8824SCSI CDRW, Plextor 40X SCSI
CDROM, Fujitsu 36GB 10KRPM SCSI HD, BVisionPPC, 256 MB FASTRAM, PowerFlyer
EIDE, Scandex external scandoubler, ZIV busboard, Algor USB, Xsurf
ethernet, Var I/O, Delfina Flipper sound card, Trendnet 56K external modem,
Logitech optical mouse, 60 GB IDE HD space, AmigaOS 3.9 BB2
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Daniel

APUS is the name for the kernel project for PowerPC Linux. Debian is one of many Linux distributions (and one that supports PowerPC ;-) ) there is no reason why you cant use the latest APUS kernel with the latest Debian distribution - its what most of us do! :-) lets get some things fixed 1) to use the CyberVisionPPC, simply add the correct 'video' comamnd to the end of your boothack line....eg video=pm2fb:mode:1024x768-60 2) cannot mount Amiga partitions? well, what Amiga Filesystem are those partitions? the kerneo l cannot read PFS2/PFS3 or FastFileSystem v50 (AmigaOS4 filesystem) the latest bleding edge kernel can read (read only!) SFS partitions. to mount, simply do (eg) mount -t affs /dev/hda2 /mnt > By the way, is there any doc on the video modes of the CybervissionPPC? its either covered int he boothack docs, or /usr/src/linux/drivers/video/cvppc.c ;-) (better documentaion is definately always needed!) alan |

Here are the things I have found on trying to install and boot linux ppc =
on my Amiga 3000 off and on for the past month.
system:
A3000 desktop moved to a tower case
CyperStormPPC (with onboard CyberSCSI)
8MB main board memory
2MB video memory
128 MB 60ns ram on PPC board
Adridne II network card
CypervisionPPC video card
APUS =3D kernel 2.4.20-1, boothack 010623, ramdisk 20000622
Does not reconize cybervissionPPC
Can use CyberSCSI or internal SCSI
Cannot mount CD on either internal SCSI or CyberSCSI
Can partition drives on both internal SCSI and CyberSCSI
Cannot mount Amiga partition on either internal SCSI or CyberSCSI
Cannot install system
Debian =3D debian-30r1-powerpc (must use boothack 010623)
Must use the cybersissionPPC (cannot use ECS chipset)
Cannot use the CyberSCSI
Cannot mount the CD
Can partiton the drive
Cannot mount the Amiga partition
Can only install system via internet, but gives an error on boot =
about old PCI drivers then locks up.
Does anyone else with a 3000 have linux ppc up and running? If so, =
could you tell me what versions of the different software you used?
By the way, is there any doc on the video modes of the CybervissionPPC?
Thank you very much,
George

Hmmmm, how do you manage the ppc, via powerUp or warpUp? IIRC I had similar problems when upgrading to OS 3.9 or something. I had to switch entirely to warpUp, i.e. load it at boot time (I think there's an official preferences tool for this to achieve). > bh000629 fails with compressed image too large.

Any clue on the program fail error? As I said, may be related to the method how you access the cpu. Well, and telling from the error number, seems to be a general failure, so no specific causes. -- Best wishes, Andi |

Dusted of my 3K and thought I would try to get APUS going. System: 3000 Desktop (moved to tower case) CyberStorm PPC (128MB ram 60ns) bh010623 fails with: "bootstrap Program failed (error #80000004). Wait for disk ..." bh000629 fails with compressed image too large. I am trying the ramdisk.image.gz just to see if it will start up. using Kernel 2.4.20-1 command line: bootstrap --apus -k vmlinux -r ramdisk.image.gz root=3D/dev/ram note: I changed the name of the kernel to vmlinux Checked the FAQ and only saw about the question about the boothack = upgrade from 000629 to 010623. Any clue on the program fail error? Thank you very much, George |

I looked into driver code (53c7xx.c) and i found this in bug list: * - With OPTION_DISCONNECT, on two systems under unknown circumstances, * we get a PHASE MISMATCH with DSA set to zero (suggests that we * are occurring somewhere in the reselection code) where * DSP=some value DCMD|DBC=same value. * * Closer inspection suggests that we may be trying to execute * some portion of the DSA? * scsi0 : handling residual transfer (+ 0 bytes from DMA FIFO) * scsi0 : handling residual transfer (+ 0 bytes from DMA FIFO) * scsi0 : no current command : unexpected phase MSGIN. * DSP=0x1c46cc, DCMD|DBC=0x1c46ac, DSA=0x0 * DSPS=0x0, TEMP=0x1c3e70, DMODE=0x80 * scsi0 : DSP-> * 001c46cc : 0x001c46cc 0x00000000 * 001c46d4 : 0x001c5ea0 0x000011f8 * * Changed the print code in the phase_mismatch handler so * that we call print_lots to try to diagnose this. I tryed boot with option 53c7xx=nosync:0,nodisconnect:0 but this option not pass to driver. I think that reason is ncr53c7xx_setup. This function is never called... dus |

Could you try some other tool than kppp, although this is=20 basically just a wrapper and shouldn't have any influence on the=20 crashing? Or maybe you leave out the ram speed argument, but I can hardly imagine=20= that memory problems would be triggered by the ppp daemon. I really=20 think it's about the kernel serial driver code. What has changed=20 between the kernel versions in the driver code (or the whole=20 framework..))? These are just a few pointers you could go after. --=20 Best wishes, Andi= |

Well, ppp and pppoe isn't exactly the same thing, no? I guess it's the=20= serial driver code in the kernel which crashes your machine. The ADSL=20 modem is connected via ethernet, as you stated. But, why aren't you buying an ADSL router? It's only a bit more=20 expensive than a normal ADSL modem, but your computer then is like a=20 normal host in a LAN and gets connected using a static or dynamic (via=20= dhcp) ip address! With an ADSL router, you can save yourself all the=20 pppoe hassles. This may be the easiest way to connect a host to the WAN. > I'm using the 2.4.18-apus kernel because > it feels like it's the best one right now, > except that Internet doesn't work of course :(. > > If I'm using the 2.4.4 kernel the pppd daemon > dies just before I get connected to the net.

Well, ask the maintainer of the apus kernel package in debian ;) --=20 Best wishes, Andi= |

If I connect a ADSL ethernet modem, will KPPP crash the whole system just as easy as if you had connected an old ordinary modem? I'm using the 2.4.18-apus kernel because it feels like it's the best one right now, except that Internet doesn't work of course :(. If I'm using the 2.4.4 kernel the pppd daemon dies just before I get connected to the net. When will there be a newer kernel available? (A precompiled 2.4.21 kernel perhaps..?) -- Bj=F6rn Johansson "Debian rocks!!" |

Hi! I recently got a tip from Chris Hodges. It is possible to disable the HighwayUSB hardware with this command: addusbhardware devs:usbhardware/highwayusb.device REMOVE It works excellent! :) He wasn't very keen on making drivers for Linux, though. He said that it would be a waste of time. -- Bj=F6rn Johansson "Debian rocks!!" |

Will there be a serious attempt on getting a test kernel working with the HighwayUSB SOON? Maybe someone could alter the bootstrap with a new command which disables my HighwayUSB? At least I don't need to remove the hardware each time I'm going to boot Linux.. -- Bj=F6rn Johansson "Debian rocks!!" |
