Kernel 2.4.20 problems

[T. <Ren...@gm...>]

Hello everybody,

I've got a running SuSE7.1 installation on my A4000PPC. I use  kernel2.4.=
18
and everything goes fine (besides UW-support that is not implemented with=
in
this version, is it?).

Well but I need UW-SCSI support,  because all my none-Linu partitions and=

all other HDs and CDROMs/CDRW is connected to this bus and I need the med=
ia
for data exchange!

Now I downloaded 2.4.20 binaries, copied everything on it's place (also a=
ll
modules) and booted linux.
First of all I got so much output during bootup and HD recognition that I=

cannot tell you whatwent wrong (and because of not having any other
partition writable under Linu I cannot copy log files).

The second point is that the bootup hangs on setting up the CMOS clock
(2.4.18 does not) but after pressing control-C it continues.

After all the X-server won't start (runs fine using 2.4.18). It claims a =
lot
of symbols are missing and catches a signal 11 and therefore breaks.

Can please anybody tell my why the system does not work (almost at all) w=
hen
using kernel 2.4.20 than 2.4.18?

Is there a newer kernel version that can be used safely and supports
UW-SCSI?

What shall I do in order to get things working?

Many thanks in advance

Kind regards
