Thank you Joe. For the first time in a couple of months the machine just booted. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Note that I didn't easily find CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED in make |
| 25 |
menuconfig so I only disabled CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 which was |
| 26 |
enough to allow it to boot. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
I took a quick look at the PPC install guide and frankly I don't see |
| 29 |
instructions there to disable this option, although I have done this |
| 30 |
on other machines. Is it just me or are the instructions actually not |
| 31 |
in the kernel config section. If they are truly missing then it would |
| 32 |
be great if someone could update that. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Anyway, it seems completely unreasonable for me, after all this, to |
| 35 |
just say thanks for the help. It doesn't begin to represent how |
| 36 |
appreciative I am of the time you spent looking into this with me. I |
| 37 |
really am indebted. |

Cheers, |
