[linuxdc-dev] Still no kernel

[Mike B. <mik...@ho...>]

I'm now on my 3rd week of trying to get the current kernel to build and
boot.

A recap...

I can build & boot Bill Gatliff's distribution
I built a new toolchain - binutils 2.11.2, gcc 3.0.4
Pulled and treelinked the SH & DC sources
Linked in the kernel tree into Bill's tree
Built latest kernel using old & new tools both (didn't seem to affect the
outcome)
Burned the CD
Boots result in constant reboots on the DC

I'm beginning to think that the boot environment that Bill's distribution
uses isn't compatible with the current CVS tree.  I would like to get a
complete setup that mirrors exactly another developers environment.

I spent the entire weekend doing builds and boots.  Something's just not
right about what I'm doing.   Another week of this and I'll go nuts.  I've
invested in all the equipment needed including keyboard, mouse, microphone,
bba, etc and don't want to have to ditch it all just because I can't do a
build of the latest sources.
