In my neverending quest to set up at least one running system with |
| 2 |
Gentoo/Alpha, I've gotten a Takara (DMCC PICMG 21164/500) fixed and running. |
| 3 |
The LiveCDs, both 1.4-test1 and 1.4RC1-test4, refuse to boot on it. The |
| 4 |
kernel panics, claiming a kernel paging error. I can boot the Debian 3.0r2 |
| 5 |
install CD on the box, but it doesn't have enough smarts to install Gentoo: |
| 6 |
I can get the networking running fine, and (after un-bzipping the stage |
| 7 |
tarball elsewhere) have the hard disk initialized and loaded, but I can't |
| 8 |
bind-mount /dev (which is required, since no devfs), and chroot complains |
| 9 |
"FATAL: kernel too old". The Debian install CD uses a 2.2.20 kernel. |

|
| 11 |
Now what do I do? Am I going to have to do something really kludgey like |
| 12 |
build my own LiveCD with whichever option is missing that keeps the current |
| 13 |
one from booting on Takara?...or, worse, have to patch it first? |
