Hmmm ... I tried the kernel from your webpage, and it does indeed see |
| 18 |
the |
| 19 |
hard drive(and cddrive) on the SCSI bus according to the dmesg log, but |
| 20 |
the live boot fails because the cloop driver has unresolved symbols |
| 21 |
(kfree, |
| 22 |
do_generic_file_read, highmem_start_page, blk_dev, blk_init_queue, |
| 23 |
fsync_dev, kmap_high, printk, irq_stat, bksize_size,__cli plus others |
| 24 |
that |
| 25 |
scroll off screen) |

Going with the default Gentoo-1.4 kernel (2.4.21-ppc-r2) and trying to |
| 28 |
insmod |
| 29 |
your mesh.o causes the system to lock up hard. Am I loading the wrong |
| 30 |
module? |
| 31 |
Wrong order? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Alternately, where are the cloop sources and where might I find a decent |
| 34 |
howto for making .isos? |
