Subject: Alphastation stopped booting with 2.4.10+
Date: 02 Nov 2001 00:02:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wv1a5c39.fsf@gibbon.cnet.aladdin.de> (raw)
Hi,
2.4.9 worked fine, but starting with 2.4.10 my Alphastation 200
stopped booting. It simply halts immediately after being called by
aboot:
------------
aboot> 6
aboot: loading compressed boot/srm-vmlinux-2.4.10.gz...
aboot: zero-filling 147840 bytes at 0xfffffc0000a82520

halt code = 5

I think the problem is the newly introduced opDEC_check, if I do the
following change

if (implver() == IMPLVER_EV4) {
- opDEC_check();
+ /*opDEC_check();*/
}
}
------------
the computer boots OK.
I'm using SRM V7.0-9 and aboot 0.8 on an AlphaStation 200 4/100
regards,
chris
