Subject: [suse-sparc] Problems with Sparc 2 and Kenel 2.4.18Pre2

    Hello all,

    I've just loaded a sparc 2 with a bare minimum install of SuSE 7.3 and
    installed gcc and make and patch to facilitate the compiling of the
    kernel. I used CVS to get the latest source from vger.samba.org and
    compiled the kernel, compiled the modules, installed the modules,
    installed the kernel and the System.map. I then rebooted, and this is
    what I get:

    Uncompressing image...
    bootmem_init: Scan sp_banks,
    init_bootmem(spfn[220],bpfn[220],mlpfn[4000])
    free_bootmem: base[0] size [fef000]
    free_bootmem: base[1000000] size[2fc4000]
    free_bootmem: base[3fcb000] size[35000]
    reserve_bootmem: base[0] size[220000]
    reserve_bootmem: base[220000] size[800]
    Booting Linux...
    mem_init: Calling free_all_bootmem().

    and then it just sits there. What can I do to get a working 2.4.x kernel
    on this sparc 2?

    Ed
