Good point.

Deactivated Voodoo3 CGFX-driver and Terratec mixer.

Unfortunately no success.

Last thing bootstrap does is writeing "Inhibiting all filesystems: CD0: RAM:
DF0: HD1: HD2: HD0:" as before (installing the G-Rex 4000D) but then it
freezes the computer.


Question is: Is this a problem of bootstrap or Linux/APUS kernel?

Are the sources of bootstrap available anywhere?

I tried the 2.10.10 kernel you mentioned and with the upper mentioned vid=

setting (disable pm2fb) it worked.

However Linux on a PAL screen doesn't make much fun.
I guess I'll have to reactivate my old PicassoIV (hm which PCI card shoul=

If I get the latest kernel sources (2.4.9 or so) I guess it is possible t=

compile it without PCI support, or?
If so, how can I get the sources from the Amiga-OS side (as the PCI Ether=

card is not visible from APUS)? Does there a CVS for Amiga OS exist?


BTW: Thanks to everybody who helped me on this subject.

Right next to the 2.4 kernels. ;) At the top of our files list.

I have one small question - anyone have a working 2.4.17 kernel on Apus?
I get cvs version or compiled .deb package, but there is no chance to run
it. After runing bootstrap, all goes good but there is no switch to Linux
console and system is freezed.

Probably the kernel. Please add 'debug debug=3Dmem' to your bootstrap
line, after the reboot run dmesg in AmigaOS and post the output here.

What does "deactivating" mean exactly? Did you try to boot without
startup-sequence and then start into apus?
