Re: Diff`s for MOL

[Alan B. <al...@ms...>]

hi,

well, things are never easy...not only becoming used to CVS, but now my
SSH skills have improved ;-)

Hopefully the CVS update of the mol-branch was successful!!

changes are to the following files:

M 2.2/arch/ppc/config.in
M 2.2/arch/ppc/kernel/head.S
M 2.2/arch/ppc/kernel/ppc_ksyms.c
M 2.2/arch/ppc/mm/init.c                 

I guess that people who want to work on this will need to keep two
directories....one for the working 2.2, and one for the mol-branch 2.2

- otherwise, how do you keep gcc compiling the clean , or mol-branch
sources???  I guess i am correct?

Finally, no! dont get over-excited! MOL is still not working in APUS,
however the mol-branch CVS is now in a ready state (on the suggestion of
Michel!!) for others to join in with possible changes!

Please have a look at the head.S, i guess this is where all our troubles
lie. I have put the APUS_PROGRESS system back into play...you may use
APUS_PROGRESS(X) calls (where X is a number) to see how far down head.S
you get...thats if APUS_PROGRESS is working!! 8-)

One last thing....if you can see the problem, but cant use CVS (and
believe me, the use of branches etc can be confusing!!) then please just
email me the patches or snippets of code directly!! I'll be able to place
them into the CVS branch straight away....lets not have any more delays
due to people having to climb steep learning development curves :-)
(dont worry Michel, I'll help anyone who WANTS to learn CVS/branches :-) )


Alan  - back to my Solaris nightmare now
